Trinity Manor Burwood: A Peaceful and Caring Community

Trinity Manor Burwood offers a close-knit environment, as our home only has 45 beds. Trinity Manor Burwood becomes home for the elders, and they are cared for by staff who value their history and the rich stories they have to tell. We are an inclusive community all working together to achieve the same outcome, a positive ageing experience for our elders.

Care Fees

Residents can be asked to pay the following fees (the eligibility fees are confirmed by the Department of Human Services):

• A standard resident contribution;
• A means tested care fee;
• An additional service fee.

Basic Daily Fee

The basic daily fee is 85% of the age pension amount and the fee is indexed every 6 months in line with the age pension.

All elders are required to pay this fee, including full pensioners and part pensioners with low income, unless an elder is approved for financial hardship.

Means tested care fee

This is a Government regulated fee. Please click on the link for further information https://www.myagedcare.gov.au/costs/aged-care-homes-costs-explained/means-tested-care-fee

Additional service fee

Additional service fees apply to places in residential care facilities that have additional service status. These fees are charged on a daily basis.

Trinity Manor has additional service status providing a higher standard of room, meals, other care and services. We pride ourselves on the wide range of additional services offered.

Accommodation Cost

• basic daily fee
• means-tested care fee
• fees for extra and additional services.

Your income and assets assessment will determine if you will receive assistance with your accommodation costs. Some people will have their accommodation costs paid in full or in part by the Australian Government. Others will need to pay the price agreed to with the aged care home.

Accommodation payments are refundable to the resident on departure. We may deduct any amounts owing to us. Those residents transferring to another aged care facility will have their accommodation payment refunded within 14 days from when notice is given. If a resident passes away, the balance of their accommodation payment will be refunded to the estate within 14 days after we receive a copy of the Grant of Probate or Letters of Administration.

Fee Collection

Residents at Trinity Manor are required to pay their fees and charges monthly in advance. Please discuss fee collection methods with the administration officer prior to admission. For residents who have an unpaid accommodation payment amount, your monthly invoice will include an interest component on the unpaid accommodation payment.

Hardship

Sometimes residents may be eligible for hardship assistance if they cannot afford their fees or accommodation costs due to circumstances beyond their control. An application for hardship can be submitted to the Department of Health using an online form.
