Some kind words from Relacs clients.

“Everything was done brilliantly- I have never met a team of people that show such empathy and kindness during such a stressful time.”

– Tara

The initial consultation was very thorough with both placement and financials. I felt we were then able to proceed to the next stage with the right goals.

– ANON

Jenny G was fabulous with the placement and was very empathetic, offered guidance and was very professional. Jenny B handled the financials well and everything seemed to fall into place and ran smoothly. I have no hesitation to recommend Relacs to my friends- it was a stress-free experience.

Our family felt that we were treated with respect and patience and information was provided in a manner easy to understand. Very pleased with the placement!

Frequently Asked Questions

What services does Relacs offer?

Relacs offers a comprehensive range of aged care consulting services, including aged care financial services, guidance on residential aged care, dementia care, palliative care, and respite care. Each service is designed to help families make informed decisions at every stage of the aged care journey.

How much does aged care cost in Australia?

Aged care costs in Australia vary depending on the type of care, the individual’s income and assets, and the facility or provider chosen. For residential aged care, costs typically include a basic daily fee set by the government, a means-tested care fee, an accommodation payment (RAD or DAP), and any additional service fees.

Our team helps families understand exactly what they will pay, model different financial scenarios, and identify strategies to reduce costs legally and effectively. Contact or call (08) 6109 8006 and a RELACS advisor will help you find the best path forward.

When should I start planning for aged care?

The earlier the better. Ideally, families should begin planning for aged care at least 2 to 5 years before it is needed. Early planning allows time to structure assets effectively, establish Enduring Powers of Attorney, review estate plans, and identify the right type of care before it becomes urgent.

That said, it is never too late to seek advice. Relacs works with families at every stage, whether planning well in advance or responding to an immediate care need. Contact or call (08) 6109 8006 and a RELACS advisor will help you find the best path forward.

Does moving into aged care affect the Age Pension?

Yes. Entering residential aged care can significantly impact Centrelink Age Pension entitlements. The family home is generally exempt from the assets test for two years after entry, but changes to assessable assets, rental income from the former home, and the structure of accommodation payments can all affect the pension rate. Our team provides independent advice on how to manage these impacts as part of our broader aged care financial services. Contact or call (08) 6109 8006 and a RELACS advisor will help you find the best path forward.

Does Relacs help with dementia and palliative care planning?

Yes. Relacs has specialist expertise in helping families plan for dementia care and palliative care, two areas where the care journey can be lengthy, complex, and financially demanding. Our advisers help families understand their options at each stage, access the right funding, and put financial and legal arrangements in place well ahead of time. Contact or call (08) 6109 8006 and a RELACS advisor will help you find the best path forward.
