What you can request
Aged care gardening that starts with the actual job
A short enquiry can come from the older person, family, representative, care partner or registered aged care provider. We first review the essential light gardening requirement and local capacity, then confirm the provider and service arrangements needed.
Sydney enquiries can be recorded while capacity grows, including requests from a family, care partner or registered Support at Home provider planning essential light gardening.
The Support at Home program is accessed through My Aged Care. Eligible gardening sits under Home maintenance and repairs – Gardening and is intended to support safety and access. It can include essential light mowing, pruning or yard clearance, but not landscaping, tree removal or purely cosmetic gardening. Client contributions may apply, and funded work must be arranged through a registered aged care provider; Mercando does not present itself as My Aged Care approved.
Essential light gardening
Pruning, essential upkeep and yard clearance based on the assessed and authorised scope.
Safer outdoor access
Garden tidy-up priorities that support access and reduce avoidable outdoor obstacles.
Regular support
Recurring visits can be requested where authorisation and local capacity allow.

Frequently asked questions
Essential light gardening may be included where it supports assessed safety or access needs and is authorised in the support plan. The registered provider or care partner should confirm eligibility, scope and client contributions.
CHSP continues separately during the transition to Support at Home. A CHSP provider should confirm whether home maintenance or essential gardening is available under the person’s service arrangement.
Yes. The first enquiry can come from the older person or someone assisting them.
No. We begin with the location, gardening requirement and contact pathway. Further information is requested only when needed to progress an available option.
