Services: Tasmania-wide, with a Hobart-based heritage — “from vacuuming to vital signs”
Last updated 20 August 2026
These organisations are registered for Support at Home — the program that replaced Home Care Packages in November 2025 — and service greater Hobart and southern Tasmania. Under Support at Home you choose your own provider, and you can switch at any time without a new assessment or going back on the waitlist.

Services: Hobart and surrounding suburbs
Hobart’s home care market is dominated by Tasmanian and faith-based not-for-profits — The District Nurses (operating since 1896), Community Based Support, Uniting AgeWell, Southern Cross Care Tasmania and the Salvation Army — with fewer national for-profit brands than mainland capitals; franchises like Just Better Care fill part of that gap.
Several providers publish flexible service-area language covering the greater Hobart councils (Clarence, Glenorchy, Kingborough, Brighton, Huon Valley), but availability in the Huon and Derwent Valleys can still depend on workforce. Care management fees around 10% — the maximum allowed under Support at Home — are typical of the local not-for-profits; see our guide to the care management fee.
Tell us your suburb and what help you need. We’ll suggest providers from our directory who service your area — free, no obligation, and in your own time.
No. Other providers also service southern Tasmania, and our directory grows as we add and verify more. For the complete official register, use the find-a-provider tool on My Aged Care (myagedcare.gov.au) or call 1800 200 422.
No. A listing is not an endorsement — we haven’t assessed the quality of any provider’s care. We may receive a fee from providers when we refer you; that never changes what we write or who appears here.
Use the “View contact details” button on a provider’s card, or ask us to introduce you. Before you sign anything, ask each provider for their current price list and confirm they can actually staff your suburb — there’s no rush, and no fee for changing your mind later.
