3 steps to match with the right provider
Tell Us About Yourself And Your Situation
Simply complete a short online questionnaire (it only takes a few minutes). Here, we’ll ask about your current My Aged Care (MAC) funding, your Home Care Package (Level 1-4) or Support at Home (Classifications 1-8), your location, and of course, the kind of support you’re looking for. Whether it’s for nursing, domestic help, or transport – there are no wrong answers.

Speak With A Real Person
One of our dedicated, expert-led Care Advisers will call you at a time that best works for you. With absolutely no pressure or rush, our dedicated team takes the careful time to genuinely understand yourself and your situation. Whether you’re newly approved for Support at Home, under a transitional Home Care Package, looking to switch from an existing provider, or find quality in-home aged care for your loved one – we’re here for all of it. And it’s most important to us, that you feel seen and heard.
People-first approach

Connect With A Care Provider You Can Trust
Based on everything you disclose with us, we’ll recommend a quality Support at Home provider from our handpicked network of vetted providers. If we wouldn’t leave our loved ones to them, then we definitely wouldn’t leave them to you. When you agree with our recommendation, we’ll handle the introduction and the paperwork. But if it doesn’t feel right, we’ll always have a back-up plan with another option. And all of this comes at zero cost to you.

Our services across Perth
From everyday assistance to specialised care, find support that fits your life at home.
Nursing care
Western Australia’s unique health landscape demands specialised nursing support. Our carefully vetted providers offer comprehensive nursing care that goes beyond basic medical assistance. From managing complex health conditions influenced by our state’s unique environmental challenges to providing culturally sensitive care for Indigenous and multicultural communities, we connect you with nursing professionals who understand the specific health needs of Perth residents.
Personal care
Independence is a core value in Western Australian culture. Our personal care providers focus on maintaining dignity and self-sufficiency. We understand that personal care in Perth means more than just assistance – it’s about preserving individual identity, respecting personal space and supporting seniors to continue living life on their own terms.
Respite Living
Recognising the unique pressures faced by Western Australian families – particularly those connected to mining, agriculture and FIFO industries – our respite care services provide critical support. We help families find flexible care solutions that accommodate unpredictable work schedules and the challenges of rural and metropolitan living.
Allied health & therapeutic services
Perth’s diverse environment requires adaptive health support. Our providers offer specialised allied health services that consider the state’s unique climate and lifestyle. From rehabilitation services that help seniors maintain mobility in our varied terrain to therapeutic support that addresses the specific health challenges of Western Australian seniors.
Meals & nutrition
Nutrition in Perth goes beyond mere meal preparation. We connect you with providers who understand the dietary nuances of Western Australian seniors – from culturally diverse meal options to nutrition that supports health in our challenging climate and lifestyle.
Domestic assistance
Home maintenance in Western Australia requires specific expertise. Our providers offer domestic assistance that takes into account the unique challenges of Perth’s environment – from managing dust in rural areas to maintaining homes in coastal and urban settings.
Companion Care
Social connection is vital in a state as vast as Western Australia. Our companion care services focus on combating isolation, particularly for seniors in regional and remote areas. We prioritise providers who understand the importance of meaningful social engagement in maintaining mental and emotional well-being.

Choosing the right provider is personal. We help you choose a provider who understands your loved one, so they can feel safe, supported and valued at home.
Precision matching for Perth’s diverse lifestyles
Our matching process goes beyond standard care services by deeply understanding the specific needs of Perth seniors. We consider the intricate details of your lifestyle – whether you’re enjoying retirement in a Fremantle heritage home, living in a modern Subiaco apartment, or settling in a quiet suburban setting like Applecross or Nedlands. Care isn’t just about services; it’s about preserving your independence and maintaining the quality of life that makes Perth special.
Continuous support
Our commitment extends far beyond the initial connection. We implement a comprehensive follow-up process specifically designed for Perth’s community-focused environment. Regular check-ins ensure your care remains adaptive to the changing needs of Perth seniors. If your care requirements shift with the seasons or your personal circumstances change, our team is ready to help you navigate those transitions smoothly.
Expert guidance
The world of home care funding can be complex, but our advisors are specialists in helping Perth residents maximise their options. We provide clear, localised guidance on Home Care Packages, understand the nuanced funding landscape and help you access the most comprehensive care possible without unnecessary financial stress. Our knowledge is tailored specifically to the needs of Perth’s senior community.
Holistic care approach
We recognise that quality care extends beyond physical support. Our approach considers the complete well-being of Perth seniors – addressing social connections, mental health and individual preferences. We connect you with providers who understand the local community spirit, the importance of social engagement and the specific needs of seniors across Perth’s diverse suburbs.

The CareAbout team was thorough
The CareAbout team was thorough and very helpful with matching my dad with the right care provider. They asked a number of questions in relation to my dad and what care he would require moving forward. Would recommend CareAbout if you're looking into a care provider or wanting to change care providers.

Home Care for Dad
CareAbout made it so easy to find a nursing home
I was desperately looking for a nursing home that can provide respite care for my dad. Thankfully CareAbout has made it so easy. With just a few phone calls in the morning I was given a list of the suitable nursing homes, and in the afternoon I was able to find one that can accept my dad. Thank you for a great service!
Hung Bui
Nursing Home
Absolutely outstanding help and support
To be honest I didn’t expect much from CareAbout as I thought it would be an online only support, however my expectations were soon exceeded with the quality of help, support and continuous phone call follow ups to make sure I found an aged care facility for my dad. Billy made the process so easy and took the stress out of finding a suitable aged care facility.
