Commonwealth Support Program

Pika Wiya Health Service Aboriginal Corporation is a provider of Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP).

CHSP is a basic home support program that helps older people to stay independent, active and healthy in their own homes and communities.

The idea of CHSP is to give people a small amount of regular help so they can remain stronger and independent.
