How we rank providers

Rankings in South Mackay 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 list Speech Pathologist, Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist, Psychologist, and Audiologist among their professions, or offer early childhood intervention, therapy, and allied health. Generalist providers who only mention this service in passing are excluded, so the list reflects genuine, demonstrated capability. This support is new or still rolling out, so these are the closest-matched providers based on the criteria above while the dedicated program is established.
  • 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.
  • Servicing distance. No providers are based in South Mackay, so we show the nearest providers who travel to the area, closest first, with the distance shown on each.

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.
