Staying connected
We understand that staying active and engaged in the community is an important part of remaining well and independent particularly in rural areas – we can help you meet and make friends, learn new skills and be more physically active.
Country Health Connect holds activity groups across country South Australia and is linked into other community services like men’s shed, craft and special interest groups.
Looking after you
Our fully trained and caring staff can provide a range of domestic services and clinical care so that you can continue to keep doing the things you care about, in and outside your own home.
- Personal care – including help with meals, showering, dressing and moving about the house.
- Help around the home – including cleaning, laundry, gardening and shopping.
- Safe environment – options for home modifications and mobility equipment.
- Clinical care – nursing and therapy services including physiotherapy, podiatry, occupational therapy and advice about nutrition.

Funding your care
We know that paying for your services can be daunting. While you may be asked to contribute towards the cost of some services, we can guide you through the application process, where applicable, and discuss financial support options if required.
How much you are asked to contribute will depend on the services you need and your eligibility for Commonwealth or State financial assistance.
