What is the Transition Care Programme?
The Transition Care Programme (TCP) is a jointly funded Commonwealth and state/territory programme that provides short-term, goal-directed support after a hospital stay, so an older person can regain strength and confidence before returning home or moving into longer-term care. Under the Department of Health and Aged Care (2025) TCP guidelines, it runs for up to 12 weeks and includes nursing, allied health, and personal care, delivered at home or in a residential setting.
For an older person in South Australia recovering from a fall, stroke, or major surgery, this extra time with nursing and therapy support often decides whether they can return to their own home rather than move into residential care sooner than they need to.
Who It Is For and How It Is Funded
Transition care is for people who have been in hospital and are not yet ready to return home safely, or who would otherwise be at risk of entering residential aged care prematurely. Access is arranged through an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) assessment before hospital discharge. The programme is government-subsidised under the Department of Health and Aged Care (2025) framework, with only a small daily fee applying in some cases. It sits outside the Support at Home programme and is not a Home Care Package.
Because access is arranged before discharge, a family in South Australia is best raising transition care with the hospital social worker or the treating team while their relative is still an inpatient, rather than waiting until they are home.
Finding Transition Care in South Australia
Transition care places are limited and organised through the hospital, not booked directly, so what matters in South Australia is knowing to ask for an ACAT assessment before discharge. The programme runs either in the person’s own home or in a residential setting, so it helps to ask which options are available in South Australia and whether home-based delivery suits the person’s situation. A provider’s mix of nursing, physiotherapy, and personal care also varies, so match it to the recovery goal.
Availability on Carevo
Carevo lists 2,619 aged care providers across 4,782 suburbs, including nurses and allied health providers who support post-hospital recovery. For ongoing in-home support once transition care ends, see the Support at Home program.
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.
