What does in-home care include?

In-home care covers the everyday help you need to live well at home: showering and dressing, medication prompting, meal preparation, cleaning and laundry, shopping, transport to appointments and company through the day. Support can be a couple of hours a week or around the clock.

Is in-home care funded by the NDIS?

Yes. Most in-home supports are funded from Core Supports — assistance with daily life and assistance with social and community participation. We can quote against your plan whether it is agency managed, plan managed or self managed.

Can I choose my support workers?

Always. We match workers on skills, personality, language, gender preference and interests, then keep that team consistent so you are not explaining your routine to someone new each week.

Do you provide overnight and 24/7 in-home support?

Yes — sleepover, active night and 24/7 rosters are available where funding supports it, along with an on-call line so there is always a person to reach after hours.

Can nursing be combined with in-home care?

Yes, and this is where our clinical governance matters. A registered nurse can oversee wound care, medication and high-intensity supports while the same team handles your personal care and household tasks.

Do you support people coming home from hospital?

Yes. Our hospital-to-home transition care includes discharge planning with hospital teams, Transition Care Program (TCP) support of up to 12 weeks, a home safety assessment and set-up, transport home, immediate post-discharge nursing and personal care, reablement support and equipment hire such as hospital beds and mobility aids.

How quickly can support start?

Usually within a few business days of your first call. We complete a home visit, agree a care plan and roster, introduce your workers and then review the arrangement after the first few weeks.

Why families choose us

Reliable support, clinically backed

Missed shifts are the biggest complaint people have about home support. We roster small, local teams with backup workers who already know your plan, so a sick day does not become a day without a shower or a meal.

Because clinical oversight is built into our service, we can support people whose needs are more complex than a standard home-help service — pressure care, medication, catheters, PEG feeding and post-hospital recovery all sit within our clinical governance.

Many clients combine in-home care with community nursing, social and community access or aged care support at home.
