Your Story, Your Home: Your Trusted Partner for Positive Ageing in South Australia

Jul 03, 2025, updated Jul 03, 2025

Imagine waking up each day, surrounded by the familiar comfort of your own home – the place where countless memories have been made. This is the feeling we deeply understand and celebrate at Life Care. We believe your next chapter, this beautiful unfolding of life, should be woven right here, within the walls that hold your dearest memories, surrounded by the warmth, connection and gentle freedom that only your home can offer.

 

A Legacy of Trust and Innovation

For more than 70 remarkable years, Life Care has been more than just a care provider; we’ve been trusted companions walking alongside older South Australians. It has been our profound honour to help shape countless lives, building a legacy born from genuine, heartfelt care.

Our journey began in 1950, establishing residential aged care facilities and retirement villages to meet a vital community need. As the decades unfolded, so too did the desires of ageing Australians. We listened and we led, pioneering Home Care and Allied Health services to empower individuals to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. In fact, in 1993, Life Care was the first South Australian-based organisation to accept what are now known as Home Care Packages, demonstrating our long-standing commitment to your independence.

In 2023, we made a pivotal decision to focus exclusively on Home Care and Allied Health for older South Australians. This transition is a testament to our dedication to dignity and independence in ageing, allowing us to deliver services that not only meet your needs but enable you to truly flourish.

Your Wellbeing, Our Purpose

We’ve always listened, truly listened, because your evolving needs are the very heartbeat of our purpose. Today, our priority is helping you truly thrive, right where your heart feels most at ease. We understand the quiet strength and profound solace that comes from simply belonging in your cherished environment. Your home isn’t just a dwelling; it’s the very canvas of your wellbeing, where life’s most precious moments are painted.

Think of us as a warm, reassuring presence, here to gently support every unique step of your journey. Our comprehensive services are thoughtfully crafted to blend seamlessly into your daily rhythm:
