Families never pay Carevo. Providers pay a subscription to connect with families, with no commission or paid ranking. How Carevo works

How we rank providers

Rankings in Australia use directory relevance and observable activity on Carevo: service match, distance, register-sourced status fields, whether an enquiry can reach the provider, and recent response and connection activity. Rankings are recalculated daily. They do not assess care quality or recommend a provider.

  • How this list is built. Providers shown here either list falls prevention as a capability or have connected on a Carevo enquiry associated with it; physiotherapy, occupational therapy, allied health, nursing, personal care, and support work are used only as supporting service-match signals. Relevant enquiry activity ranks above self-declaration. A connection records willingness to make contact, not proof that support started, was completed, or went well.
  • Activity on Carevo. We measure recent actions such as connecting on an enquiry, opening its contact details, responding, and an inquirer reporting whether a connection helped. These are platform activity signals, not an assessment of the support delivered.
  • Condition-specific activity. Providers who have connected on enquiries associated with falls prevention rank above providers who only list it as a capability. A connection is not proof of experience, quality, or a completed service.
  • Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
  • Register-sourced status. NDIS registration fields come from the NDIS Commission provider register. Aged care approval fields come from the My Aged Care register. These statuses are ranking inputs, not Carevo endorsements, and you should confirm the current register entry before choosing a provider.
  • Carevo enquiries. Providers who have paused requests from us are moved down among providers with the same relevance. They stay visible and are marked as not receiving Carevo enquiries.
  • Recent activity. Providers active on Carevo recently (a connection, a login, or a profile update) get a small boost, the same signal shown as "Active this week" on their card. It is deliberately small: stronger relevance and condition evidence outweigh a recent login.
  • Local presence. Providers confirmed in Australia rank above those covering only the broader region.

What the enquiries status means

It answers one question: would a request sent through Carevo today actually reach them? It is not a rating, it is not about the provider's books, and it is not a statement about their capacity, their waiting list, or the quality of their care.

Receiving
At least one contact on their account is set up to receive new requests from us, and someone has signed in recently enough for us to say a person is there.
Not receiving
Every contact on the account has unsubscribed or paused, so we have no way to pass an enquiry on.
No status shown
We cannot tell either way, so we say nothing rather than label the provider. The account is set to receive enquiries, but nobody has signed in recently, or there are no contact details on file. It is not a negative mark, and most listings sit here.

A provider who is not receiving our enquiries may well be taking new clients directly. Providers set this themselves and can turn it back on at any time from their Carevo account or from any email we send them. Providers not receiving our enquiries are moved down the list and never hidden. It is refreshed daily, so a provider who resumes, or signs in, reappears within a day.

What the Carevo activity rating means

The Strong activity rating describes how a provider behaves on Carevo, not the care they deliver.

Where it starts
Every provider starts at a baseline of 50.
What moves it
Enquiries from the last 90 days. The strongest positive is a care seeker naming that provider as the one who helped them. The clearest negative is connecting on an enquiry and never opening the contact details.
How it is kept honest
Recalculated daily from scratch, shown only above the baseline and only with at least two scored signals, and removed automatically when either stops being true. It cannot be purchased.

It is not an endorsement, a recommendation, or an assessment of care quality, and we do not screen providers for complaints. Complaints are handled by the NDIS Commission and the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission. See the full activity rating methodology.

How we calculate provider numbers

What support people with Falls Prevention usually need

Falls are a leading cause of injury and hospitalisation among older Australians, and a significant proportion of falls are preventable with the right assessment and support. Home care services through the Support at Home program can fund physiotherapy, occupational therapy, home safety modifications, and strength training to reduce fall risk. A proactive approach to falls prevention can maintain independence and avoid the serious consequences of fractures or head injuries. The right mix of support depends on age, goals, living situation, and how much day-to-day impact falls prevention has.

Physical support and independence

Many people compare providers for personal care, physiotherapy, assistive technology (wheelchairs, hoists, home modifications), and support workers who can handle physical transfers and mobility assistance safely.

Therapy and equipment

The most common starting points are physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise physiology, and assistive technology assessments. For progressive conditions, regular therapy review matters more than a one-off plan.

Choosing the right fit

Physical disability support needs providers whose workers are trained in safe manual handling, understand assistive equipment, and can deliver support that maintains independence rather than creating dependency.

Services and providers to compare first for Falls Prevention

For mobility and physical conditions, physiotherapy, personal care, and falls prevention are usually the first services to compare. Start with providers whose staff have safe manual handling training and understand mobility equipment.

What usually separates a strong provider from a generic one

  • • Manual handling competency and experience with physical transfers, hoists, and mobility equipment
  • • Whether therapists understand the specific condition's progression and can adjust treatment accordingly
  • • Assistive technology assessment and prescription capability (wheelchairs, home mods, adaptive equipment)
  • • Availability of support workers trained for high-physical-support needs, including overnight or morning routines

How to check a provider's credentials

Carevo shows register-sourced status fields and links you to the official Australian registers so you can confirm the current entry yourself. Here is what each listing shows and where to check it. A listing on Carevo is not an endorsement.

NDIS registration

Listings show whether a provider reports being NDIS registered. You can confirm a provider's current registration and approved support types yourself on the NDIS Commission's public provider register.

Aged care approval

The aged care approval label is sourced from the Australian Government's My Aged Care provider register. Confirm the current entry and the services listed there before choosing a provider.

Source: My Aged Care (Department of Health and Aged Care)

ABN you can check

Most listings include the provider's Australian Business Number, shown on the profile. You can look it up on the Australian Business Register to confirm the business is registered and active.

Complaints process

If you have a concern about any provider, you can lodge a complaint with the NDIS Commission or the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission at any time. We also accept complaints via our own channel.

What happens after you request support

The next step is usually to narrow the services that matter most, shortlist two or three realistic providers, and ask practical questions about fit, availability, staff continuity, and how support will work in real life.

01

Map physical support needs

Work out whether the main priorities are therapy, personal care, equipment and home modifications, or a combination that needs coordinating across providers.

02

Compare condition-specific providers

Look for providers whose therapists and support workers have experience with the specific physical condition, not just general mobility support. Compare equipment capability and manual handling training.

03

Confirm practical logistics

Ask about morning/evening routine availability, how transfers and personal care are handled, equipment maintenance, and whether the provider can cover weekends or overnight if needed.

For aged care, confirm whether the provider has staff trained in safe transfers and mobility equipment, and whether they can coordinate physiotherapy, personal care, and home modifications through a single service.

Understanding Falls Prevention and Balance Disorders in Older Adults

Falls are the leading cause of injury-related hospitalisation and death in older Australians. Approximately one-third of people over 65 fall each year, and the consequences can be severe: hip fractures, head injuries, loss of confidence, fear of falling, and admission to residential care. Falls are rarely caused by a single factor. They result from the interaction of multiple risk factors including muscle weakness, poor balance, vision problems, medications, foot problems, environmental hazards, and cognitive impairment. The good news is that falls are not an inevitable part of ageing, and evidence-based falls prevention programmes can reduce fall risk by 20-40%. For older Australians living at home, a comprehensive approach that combines exercise, home modifications, medication review, and vision assessment is far more effective than addressing any single factor alone.

How falls prevention affects daily life

Falls and the fear of falling affect daily life profoundly. After a fall, many older people develop a fear of falling again that leads them to restrict their activities, avoid going out, and stop exercising, all of which increase the risk of another fall. Physical consequences of falls include fractures, soft tissue injuries, chronic pain, and loss of confidence. Hip fractures often mark a turning point in independence. Even without injury, the shock of a fall can change how a person moves and behaves for months. For people living alone, the fear of falling and being unable to get help is a constant worry. Falls prevention is not just about stopping falls; it is about maintaining the confidence and physical ability to keep living actively.

What to look for in a provider

Good falls prevention providers take a comprehensive, multifactorial approach rather than focusing on one risk factor. Ask whether they can provide a full falls risk assessment covering strength, balance, vision, medications, footwear, and the home environment. Ask whether their exercise programmes are evidence-based (Otago, Stepping On, or similar) and whether they coordinate with the person's GP for medication review. Red flags include providers who only offer home modifications without exercise, who only assess the home without checking the person's physical function, or who recommend walking frames without strengthening exercises to go with them.

There is no standard aged care budget for this diagnosis. My Aged Care assessment determines the approved support pathway. Ask your provider for a service agreement showing approved services, prices, any participant contributions and transition arrangements before committing to support. If using NDIS funding, confirm the support item and applicable funding rules separately.
