Community Options Project (COPS) are packages of care individually tailored to meet the needs of  each client/carer. COPS provide a flexible responsive service to encourage and empower the client/carer to maintain control over their own lives.

How does Community Options Work? The Co-ordinator will talk to each client and/or their carer to determine what help or care is needed to allow the client to remain living in their home. Services are monitored and reviewed regularly to ensure the care provided is appropriate.

Who can use Community Options? This Program provides general home care services for Home and Community Care (HACC) eligible clients.

Frail older people, people with a disability and their carers can access the service to assist them to live in their own home.

Our services are confined to a geographical area (QEII district - Brisbane South).  To find out more information regarding COP's, please call 3422 8400 and ask to speak to the COP's Co-ordinator, or email us at info@flexicareinc.org.au.
