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 therapy, allied health, support work, social and community support, personal care, and psychology, the support types most relevant to down syndrome. They are then ranked by demonstrated experience with down syndrome, providers who have actively claimed and supported down syndrome 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 down syndrome 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.

Down Syndrome support across South Australia
Down syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21, which affects physical and intellectual development. The NDIS provides funding for therapies, support workers, and life skills programs to help people with Down syndrome reach their potential. Many adults with Down syndrome are living increasingly independent lives, and support that focuses on building skills rather than doing things for them makes a measurable difference over time.
Carevo lists 2166 NDIS providers supporting down syndrome with active coverage across South Australia. Compare their response times and registration below, or narrow to your suburb.

Source: NDIS Commission / Aged Care CommissionUnderstanding Down Syndrome
Down syndrome is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21 and is the most common chromosomal condition in Australia, occurring in around 1 in 1,100 births (AIHW Congenital Anomalies in Australia, 2017). It affects physical and intellectual development, though the degree of impact varies significantly between individuals. People with Down syndrome typically experience some level of intellectual disability, characteristic facial features, and increased risk of certain health conditions including heart defects, thyroid disorders, hearing loss, and sleep apnoea. With the right support, many people with Down syndrome attend mainstream schools, gain employment, form relationships, and live semi-independently. Life expectancy has increased dramatically over the past few decades, with most people now living into their 60s. This means support needs to be planned across the full lifespan, including the transition from childhood to adulthood and eventually into ageing.
