JOIN THE AGED CARE COMPASS COMMUNITY
GET SKILLS, KNOWLEDGE AND SUPPORT TO HELP YOUR OLDER LOVED ONES. Join our waitlist for march 2025.
Our next launch is in March 2025. Limited places available.
The Aged Care Compass Community is not like some courses that leave you to learn on your own. Or some courses that provide you with pre- recorded videos and no live interaction from your host. We're here supporting you in person for the duration of the course.
My goal is to build a supportive community of people navigating the care of their family members. And as you gain the skills and knowledge you need to understand Australia’s aged care system, I’ll be on hand to answer all your questions.
Our next membership launches in March 2025. Join the waitlist for registration now. Don't miss out on this opportunity.
struggling to navigate the aged care system?
Looking after our loved ones as they get older is stressful.
After years of them looking after you, you’re now caring for them and steering them through the aged care system.
You’re walking a tightrope, balancing their desire for independence with the need to keep them safe.
There’s no shortage of information out there. But how do you find your way through all the websites, forms and documents?
How are you supposed to plot a course to match the needs of your loved one with what they’re entitled to?
Where are you supposed to find the time it takes to wade through all of the information?
And while you’re the one doing the research and making decisions, it seems everyone else in the family has an opinion.
But you don’t need to travel this path on your own.
With the Aged Care Compass Community, you’ll get the knowledge you need to navigate My Aged Care, with ease, and without wasting precious time.
More importantly, you’ll be part of a supportive, like-minded community.

Overwhelmed by too much information?
You're trying hard to find the best outcome for your parent or loved one. But there's just too much information from too many sources. How do you know if the information is up-to-date or even relevant to your family?
With the Aged Care Compass Community, we'll help you navigate the information and work out what's right for you and your parents or family member.
Exhausted by family tension conflict?
Working out how to support a parent or loved one as they age is hard.
Emotions are high for everyone.
It's even harder if you're the one that's expected to work out what's going on.
You're expected to reassure the rest of the family that you have everyone's best interests at heart.
We understand that.
We've helped more than two thousand families get the right information to make the best decision for their parents or loved one. You can trust us to be a reassuring, independent third party. We'll help you get the skills and knowledge you need to assist your family.

My Story
Hi, I’m Coral and I’ve worked in the public health system as a registered nurse for over 30 years. That includes 9 years as an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) assessor and delegate.
In 2017, my dad had progressed to the advanced stage of his dementia. In this last year of his life, he had 4 strokes and ended up in hospital each time.
Suddenly, I was on the other side of the system.
I realised how much needed to be done to help older people and their families navigate the aged care system.
We were able to access the right in-home care programs to bring Dad home, supplementing his home care package. This was despite so many in his treating team and allied health thinking it wasn’t possible.
I was lucky to have the skills and knowledge to get the right outcomes for my family.
The Royal Commission into Aged Care soon followed.
I realised I could do more, driving change from the outside and empowering consumers at the grassroots to get the outcomes they were entitled to.
In 2019, I launched See Me Aged Care Navigators to help older Australians and their families navigate the aged care system.
In 2024, I’m excited about launching the Aged Care Compass Community.
My goal is to help and train more people while building communities and connecting people to support each other.
I hope you’ll join us.

Over the past 5 years, we've supported more than 2000 people to get the right approvals for the right support at the right time.
Our clients consistently get ACAT approvals for the full range of in-home aged care programs, including Short-Term Restorative Care program and higher level home care packages.
We achieve this because we know the aged care system so well.
It is possible to get the support you need in a timely manner. This is what I'm going to teach you in my membership.
Join me in my community and let me show you how to get the in-home support you or your older loved one is eligible for.
My guarantee
We can’t make promises about the outcome you’ll get from the aged care system.
But I’m confident that at the end of your 6 weeks in the Aged Care Compass Community, you’ll have all the skills, knowledge and resources to navigate the My Aged Care system. There has never been a more important time to learn how the aged care system works, given the new assessment process and merging of the Aged Care Assessment Teams and Regional Assessment Service to become one new workforce has begun. The better you understand our aged care system, the more likely you'll enter and move through it with greater ease, in a more timely manner and receive the approvals for the support you're eligible for.
Your investment
You might wonder why you’d pay for information that’s available free on the internet.
The reality is, there’s so much out there, most people struggle to find the right information. And even if they can find it, they’re unsure what the next steps are.
Working out who to contact, when to contact them and what you need to say, can waste so much time.
Instead you can invest in our knowledge and expertise. We’ll efficiently guide you through the system, giving you back time to spend with your family.
The Aged Care Compass Community offers an affordable alternative to my “done for you” service. This is especially useful for people who may need to support multiple family members to navigate the system in the years ahead. And with $14,082.88 in funding available with the Short-Term Restorative Care program and up to $61,440.45 for a home care package available, getting into the system now will ensure your loved one has every chance of remaining at home longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. This program is about giving you the skills and knowledge to navigate the system yourself. I offer a tailored plan, as a separate, premium service.
This program is only about the Australian aged care system. But if you’re outside Australia and trying to support a loved one in Australia, you can definitely join.
No. We begin with the starting point, being My Aged Care and take you through the sequence of assessments, approvals and what to do if your needs increase so your learning flows and informs the next class topic.
If you attend the introductory session and haven’t gained any value from it (or don’t think the program is for you), I’ll happily refund your payment.
You must request any refund within 7 days of the program starting.
We do not provide any refunds after the first 7 days, and we do not provide pro rata refunds for cancelled accounts.Yes. We record all classes, including the welcome call. We save these to a member only section of the See Me Aged Care Navigators website.
The program is suitable for anyone navigating the Australian My Aged Care system. We’ve worked with family members and with people wanting to understand how to make the best of their own situation.
