Planning for the future helps our loved ones

Having a clear plan in place if something should happen to you can help ease the stress and anxiety for our loved ones at a difficult time.

Considerations when living in retirement

Your super can provide you with a regular income throughout your retirement. However, your super savings (which may be a large sum of money) may outlive you.

This is where having a clear plan and nominating a beneficiary is important. A beneficiary is someone who you can nominate to receive your super savings when you die, such as your spouse or children. It’s also a good idea to understand your Aged Care options should you need help at home, require assistive equipment and technology, or need after-hospital and nursing care.

Nominating a beneficiary

Choosing who will receive your super is important and helps your loved ones to continue with life without you.

You can nominate beneficiaries to receive your super, nominate a beneficiary to receive your pension (known as a revisionary beneficiary), or both.

Understanding Aged Care

Understanding how Aged Care services work before you need it can help you and your loved ones during a difficult time.
