Aged Care Navigators
The aged care system is complex, and it can be hard to find your way around. Council on the Ageing (COTA) Victoria has a telephone information service that helps older people navigate the aged care system.
The service gives you free and independent help to find your way around the aged care system. You can get reliable information about:
- how to register with My Aged Care
- the aged care supports available in your area
- how to compare services, facilities and prices
- what is involved in the process of registration, assessment and linking with services
- other options if you are on a waiting list for services
- and much more.

Navigating the Aged Care System Webinar Series
Navigating aged care can be tricky. People are often unaware of how to begin their journey when entering aged care, and finding information on how to change/update services is not always easy.
The Older Persons Advocacy Network (OPAN) is hosting a
series of webinars to give a practical introduction on how to enter aged care, including how to contact My Aged Care, arrange an assessment and choose services appropriate to your living situation.
