Support at Home providers in Port Augusta, South Australia
Finding home care for someone you love is one of the harder things you'll navigate. These 3 providers have offices in Port Augusta — but most Support at Home providers service a wider area. WithSally helps you identify who actually services your address, and ask each provider the right questions before deciding. Always free for families.
How WithSally is paid: when a family signs with a provider we matched, that provider pays WithSally a one-time referral fee. Families never pay. Provider listings on this page are sourced from public ACQSC / AIHW data and do not constitute endorsement. Read more about our model →

Tell us about your family
A few questions about the situation, care needs, language preferences, and what matters most.
2
We help you compare
We ask each shortlisted Port Augusta provider the same questions — services, pricing, availability, language and cultural support — and share their answers honestly so you can compare. We never promise something a provider hasn't confirmed.

These 3 providers have offices in Port Augusta, but many more operate across South Australiawithout a local office. Tell us your address and we'll help you identify every approved provider that services your area, and ask each one about your family's preferences.
Port Augusta sits about 282km from Adelaide CBD — part of South Australia. Regional location means provider availability and travel times for in-home support can vary more widely than in metro areas.
Searching for home care here is more nuanced than just finding the nearest provider. Providers vary widely in pricing, availability, and how they handle individual preferences — and the 3 providers based locally are only part of the picture, since many providers service Port Augusta from offices elsewhere. WithSally helps you compare Port Augustaproviders fairly and ask each one the right questions. We don't own any provider, never will, and won't pretend a provider offers a service they haven't confirmed.
For an Aged Care Assessment in Port Augusta, the relevant ACAT is Country Health SA ACAT. You can also call My Aged Care directly on 1800 200 422. WithSally helps after assessment — once you have an approved package, we help you find the right provider to deliver it.

Anyone over 65 (or over 50 for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples) can request an aged care assessment.
