What is a home care package?

Home care packages are a government funded program that enable senior citizens (over the age of 65) to live at home for as long as possible. They are governed by government guidelines that determine specific aged care needs and allocate funding accordingly. Home Care packages can enable participants with an eligible plan to maximise their independence to lead fulfilling lives.

Aston Lucas Gourmet partners with Home Care Package providers to deliver delicious gourmet ready-made meals. With food preparation being as simple as heating up in our microwave and oven-safe packaging, participants can enjoy a homemade meal with minimal effort and maximum taste, at a fraction of the cost.

How to order:

  1. Enquire with your HCP provider to partner with Aston Lucas Gourmet. If your provider isn’t already a partner with us, ask them to reach out to us and we will set them up.
  2. Your HCP provider will send through your referral to us and our dedicated team will email you with further instructions regarding the ordering process.
  3. Place your order on our online store using a custom coupon code for HCP participants. You pay 30% of the invoice upfront and the remaining 70% will be sent by us to your HCP provider (in other words, we take care of everything once you’ve paid the 30%).
  4. Your Aston Lucas Gourmet order will be delivered to your door*, ready for you to enjoy our delicious range of homemade meals.
