How we rank providers
Rankings in South Australia are based on real outcomes between providers and families on our platform. They are recalculated daily and cannot be purchased or influenced by advertising.
- How this list is built. Providers shown here offer nursing, physiotherapy, allied health, personal care, support work, and occupational therapy, the support types most relevant to copd. They are then ranked by demonstrated experience with copd, providers who have actively claimed and supported copd referrals rank above those who only list it as a capability.
- Outcomes with families. We measure what happens after a family contacts a provider. Providers where families report positive outcomes rank higher. Multiple signals are weighted across a rolling window.
- Condition-specific track record. Providers who have accepted and worked with copd referrals on Carevo rank above those who only list the condition as a capability. We weight providers using their demonstrated experience with this cohort, not self-declared specialisations.
- Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
- Registration and compliance. NDIS registered and government-approved aged care providers are weighted for meeting quality and safeguards standards.
- Local presence. Providers confirmed in South Australia rank above those covering only the broader region.
What "Trusted" means. The Trusted badge is awarded to providers with a consistent record of positive outcomes with families on our platform. It is based on multiple behavioural signals and family feedback, and it cannot be purchased.

COPD support across South Australia
COPD is a progressive lung condition that makes breathing increasingly difficult, affecting many older Australians who have a history of smoking or occupational dust exposure. Home care services through a Home Care Package or the Support at Home program can fund nursing, physiotherapy, and personal care to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. Pulmonary rehabilitation and breathing management programs at home can help reduce hospital admissions and support daily independence.
Carevo lists 2141 Aged Care providers supporting copd with active coverage across South Australia. Compare their response times and registration below, or narrow to your suburb.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition causing airflow limitation and breathing difficulties. It affects approximately 638,000 Australians (2.5% of the population) and is the fifth leading cause of death (ABS, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 2022). COPD includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema, most commonly caused by long-term smoking, though occupational exposure and genetic factors also contribute. COPD causes breathlessness, chronic cough, excess mucus, and reduced exercise tolerance that worsen over time. Exacerbations (flare-ups) are periods of significantly worsened symptoms that may require hospitalisation. For older Australians with moderate to severe COPD, daily life is significantly limited by breathlessness, and home-based support can make the difference between staying at home and entering residential care. Pulmonary rehabilitation is the most effective non-pharmacological intervention for COPD and is significantly underutilised.
