How we rank providers

Rankings in Northern Territory are based on real outcomes between providers and families on our platform. They are recalculated daily and cannot be purchased or influenced by advertising.

  • 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.
  • 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.

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.

How to check a provider's credentials

Carevo lists the registration details a provider reports and links you to the official Australian registers so you can confirm them 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

Listings show aged care approval where it is recorded. You can check a provider's current approval and the services they deliver on the Australian Government's My Aged Care find a provider service.

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.

Speakers Australia-wide

2,526 people in the Northern Territory use Mandarin at home, and 83% of them live in Greater Darwin (Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing 2021). Demand for care in Mandarin runs well ahead of the number of providers who advertise it, which is why asking directly matters.

Interpreting is free for NDIS-related appointments through TIS National, and aged care assessments can include an interpreter at no cost through My Aged Care.

Mandarin is the most spoken language other than English in Australia, and demand for Mandarin-speaking allied health and support workers runs well ahead of supply. Some therapists deliver sessions directly in Mandarin, which is worth asking for by name: therapy through an interpreter loses precision that assessment reports never show.

NDIS participants can access free interpreting through TIS National for appointments, and aged care assessments can be arranged with an interpreter through My Aged Care.

When comparing providers, ask whether the person delivering the support speaks Mandarin, not just the intake team, and whether written plans can be provided bilingually.
