How we rank providers

Rankings in Australian Capital 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.

  • How this list is built. Providers shown here offer social and community support.
  • 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 Australian Capital Territory 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.

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 the Australian Capital Territory need the NDIS Worker Screening Check, administered by Access Canberra. 292 of the 312 social support providers listed in ACT 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 the Australian Capital Territory as everywhere else in Australia.

What are social support visits?

Social support visits are NDIS-funded, goal-directed sessions where a support worker helps a participant build social skills, join community activities, and work towards independence goals recorded in their NDIS plan. The NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2025-26 lists this support under Assistance with Social and Community Participation, funded through Core Supports. Sessions can run one-on-one or in a group, with progress tracked against the participant’s stated goals.

Who it is for and how it is funded

Social support visits are for NDIS participants whose plan includes Core Supports funding for Assistance with Social and Community Participation, typically people working on social skills, community access, or independence goals rather than general companionship. Funding comes from Core Supports and can be flexibly allocated, per the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits 2025-26. Group sessions are priced lower per participant than 1:1 support, which stretches plan funding across more sessions.

Availability on Carevo

Carevo currently lists 28,004 NDIS-registered providers across 4,782 suburbs, ranked using the criteria explained above. If your goals are more about companionship than structured skill-building, see companionship services for a closer fit.

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.
