in Western Australia
Finding quality home care can be overwhelming, but our Home Care Shortlist makes it easy. Compare local providers, connect directly, and request information or consultations - all in one place. This saves time and ensures informed decisions.
If you’re looking for home care services in Western Australia, Aged Care Online connects you with qualified in-home aged care providers across Perth and regional WA.
Stay independent, supported, and comfortable in your own home with care that’s tailored to your needs-whether you require basic help around the house or high-level clinical support.
Home care allows older Australians to receive personalised care and support without leaving the comfort of home. These services are flexible and can be adapted as your needs change.
Common home care services in WA include:
Personal care (e.g. showering, grooming, toileting)
Domestic assistance (cleaning, laundry, cooking)
Transport and shopping support
Medication management and nursing care
Allied health (e.g. physiotherapy, podiatry)
Dementia and palliative care
Social outings and companionship
Respite care for carers
If you need more ongoing or complex support, you may be eligible for a Home Care Package - a government-funded care program that includes a coordinated care plan across four levels:
Level 1 – Basic care needs
Level 2 – Low-level support
Level 3 – Intermediate care
Level 4 – High-level complex support
You’ll need an assessment through My Aged Care and a referral code to choose an approved provider.
From 1 November 2025, the Support at Home program will replace Home Care Packages and the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP).
What’s changing:
Simplified access and eligibility
Capped pricing set by government
One system to cover all home care needs
Greater flexibility for individuals and families
Stay tuned for updates on how this transition will roll out across WA.
Aged Care Online features home care providers that service all regions of Western Australia, including:
Perth Metro (North, South, East, West)

Bunbury, Albany and the South West

No waiting list

Hourly, overnight, or 24/7 care
No need for an ACAT assessment
Private care is ideal while you wait for a Home Care Package, or if you’d like additional services on top of your funded care.
