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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

How we calculate provider numbers

What "Verified care seeker" means. Any care-seeker feedback shown above is from a real person who used Carevo to connect with that provider and then told us how it went. We only publish feedback tied to a genuine, matched enquiry, never anonymous, unsolicited, or paid reviews.

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.

Source: NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission

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.

Workers delivering NDIS supports in South Australia need the NDIS Worker Check, administered by the SA Department of Human Services Screening Unit. 730 of the 814 home nursing providers listed in SA are registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. Unregistered providers can still deliver many supports if your plan is plan managed or self managed.

NDIS price caps do not change by state: the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits set the same maximum rates in South Australia as everywhere else in Australia. Higher caps apply in areas classified remote or very remote, which covers parts of South Australia.

How much does home nursing cost in South Australia?

Home Nursing in South Australia typically costs NDIS Pricing Arrangements (Enrolled Nurse weekday daytime up to $99.88/hour, RN rates higher); Support at Home clinical care fully government funded. Actual rates vary by provider, funding type, and the level of support required.

How to pay for home nursing

Home Nursing by suburb in South Australia

What is home nursing care?

Home nursing is clinical care delivered in a person’s home by a Registered Nurse (RN) or Enrolled Nurse (EN), covering tasks such as wound care, medication management, catheter and continence care, and palliative support. Nurses must hold current registration with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency to practise (AHPRA, 2025). It sits under the NDIS Community Nursing Care registration group or Support at Home’s clinical care category, funded separately from personal care support workers.

How to choose a provider for this service

The list above is ranked using the criteria explained in the methodology above it. Four checks matter specifically when you compare nursing providers.

Registration. Confirm the individual nurse holds current AHPRA registration and check the organisation against the NDIS Commission or My Aged Care registers, not just its own website.

Response time. Post-hospital and palliative referrals often can’t wait. Benchmark a provider’s actual reply speed against the response-time table further down this page rather than a stated turnaround.

Pricing transparency. Ask for a written rate card showing RN and EN hourly rates separately, whether you’re funded through NDIS Core Supports or a Support at Home budget.

Coverage. Nursing is named in 112 of the 4,347 tracked inquiries on Carevo, but nurses aren’t rostered in every suburb; confirm the provider has clinical staff actually working in your area before you commit.

Which funding pays for home nursing, and who qualifies?

Nursing is funded two ways depending on age and need. For people under 65 with a permanent disability, the NDIS funds nursing under Core Supports as a disability-related health support where the need is linked to the disability; a plan manager or support coordinator confirms what’s included in your plan (NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, 2025). For people 65 and over, or 50 and over for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, Support at Home funds nursing as a clinical support, fully government funded with no participant contribution, after an assessment through the Single Assessment System (Department of Health and Aged Care, 2025). Lower-intensity nursing under CHSP suits people not yet assessed for Support at Home.

Availability

Carevo lists nursing among 28,004 NDIS providers and 2,619 aged care providers across 4,782 suburbs nationally, with records updated 2026-06-27. For lower-intensity nursing linked to a CHSP plan, see community nursing care; veterans with a DVA Gold or White Card can compare options on the DVA-funded home care page.

How this page is compiled

The provider rankings and figures on this page come from Carevo platform records, including provider registrations, measured response times and coverage, together with the cited official sources. Carevo is an Australian platform that connects families with vetted NDIS and aged care providers. Carevo does not deliver care itself.
