Yes – Each room accommodates up to 4 people including the participant. There is no additional cost involved.

If you require a second room to accommodate family then you will need to seek a seperate approval from your icare case manager or coordinator. Please note that in most circumstances, icare will only fund the cost for the one room. Any additional costs for family/carers to stay at Sargood can only be met in certain circumstances.

Some examples of exceptional circumstances are:

• the participant or worker needs the support of a family member or care worker to travel (to be assessed based on care need)
• where the review of daily support routines involving the family members is part of the purpose of the visit. This should be supported by written documentation such as a care need assessment report, medical report etc.
• dependent family members living in the same household as the participant and who cannot be left behind, e.g., young children
• the participant is a child and dependent on family

Yes – In most circumstances you are preapproved to attend a course. You may have to seek approval if you are using our high support or very high support package. Please speak to your icare coordinator or case manager.
