About typical prices
Under each weekday price, the arrow and amount compare it with the typical published price for the same service, priced the same way. Select the amount to see the usual range, which is the middle half of the prices providers publish.
Typical prices here come from providers within 50 km of Unley. Each comes from at least 10 organisations, using prices checked between 25 July 2026 and 5 October 2026.

What help would you like?
Pick a service to see what it costs each week, what you’d pay and how much of your budget it uses. You can change the hours and how often at any time.
One from each kind of care. Everything else Life Care prices is in the list above.
Weekday prices unless you choose another day for a service; greyed-out days have no published price. A planning estimate, not a quote: the provider confirms prices and availability. Quarterly figures use a 13-week planning period.
Services Australia confirms your contribution rates and your provider confirms the amount charged. Available Support at Home funding, the lifetime cap and financial hardship may change what you pay. We don’t save your answers about your situation.

There is no support for the elderly totally unprofessional with booked times to attend for a service either don't arrive or 4 hours different. Then to charge for not delivering a service is ripping off poor people.
