What to know about home care in Townsville

Townsville is North Queensland’s largest home care market, but it offers noticeably fewer choices than south-east Queensland. The field is anchored by faith-based not-for-profits with genuine local branches — Ozcare, Blue Care and Churches of Christ at Heatley — plus franchise operators based around Thuringowa.

Several statewide and national providers list Townsville in their coverage without keeping a local office, so it’s worth checking for an actual branch address before you commit. Local franchises such as Right at Home North Queensland extend inland as far as Charters Towers.

Common questions

Are these all the home care providers in Townsville?

No. These are the providers we’ve verified as registered for Support at Home and genuinely servicing the area — our directory grows as we confirm more. The full register of providers is on My Aged Care, and a provider not appearing here doesn’t mean anything is wrong with them.

Does being listed here mean you recommend a provider?

No — a listing is not an endorsement. We check registration and coverage, but we don’t rank or rate providers. We may receive a fee from providers when we refer you; that never changes who we list or what we write about them.

Why don’t you show phone numbers on this page?

Contact details change, and so does capacity — a number that rang out or a provider with a long intake queue helps nobody. When you ask for a provider’s details we pass them on and, if you like, make the introduction, so you’re only ever calling someone who can actually take you on. You can also find any registered provider yourself through My Aged Care.
