Life Care

Life Care Life Care supports older South Australians to live and age well with personalised Home Care, Nursing, Allied Health and Spiritual Care services.

We foster connections, independence, and active lifestyles through tailored support at home or in our clinics. At Life Care, we believe in creating a future where ageing is embraced as a time for continued growth, comfort, and support. Since our inception in 1950, our goal has always been to provide exceptional care and build meaningful connections with the individuals and families we serve. We began with the establishment of Residential Aged Care facilities and retirement villages, meeting the community’s need for secure and supportive environments. Over the decades, the needs and aspirations of ageing Australians evolved, and so did Life Care. Recognising the growing preference for people to remain in their own homes, we led the way by introducing Home Care and Allied Health services for older South Australians, allowing us to deliver personalised support directly to our clients. This change marked a shift from simply providing accommodation to offering flexible, person-centred services that empower older Australians to live life on their own terms. By 2023, Life Care made a strategic decision to transition away from accommodation services to focus exclusively on Home Care and Allied Health for older South Australians. This decision underscored our commitment to listening to what individuals value most – the ability to age in place with dignity and independence. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to tailor services to each person’s unique circumstances, ensuring they receive the care they need, when and how they need it. Today, Life Care is proud to stand as a trusted partner in positive ageing journeys. Our story continues to be written every day, as we champion innovation, compassion, and an unwavering dedication to those we serve. We are here to empower you to live a life full of possibility, supported by care that inspires confidence and brings peace of mind.

Thank You, Northern Adelaide! 💙

We're still reflecting on the wonderful connections we made at the Northern Adelaide Aged Care Expo in Gawler last month.

To everyone who stopped by our booth – thank you for sharing your stories, your questions, and your time with us. These meaningful conversations continue to inspire us in the work we do.

It was a privilege to connect with older South Australians, families, carers, and fellow providers who share our commitment to compassionate, person-centred care. Your warmth and openness truly brightened our day.

For 75 years, Life Care has been dedicated to shaping positive ageing lifestyles across South Australia. Events like these strengthen our connection to the communities we're honoured to serve.

If we didn't get a chance to chat, or if you'd like to continue the conversation, we'd love to hear from you.

Sometimes, the smallest things make the biggest difference.

A friendly face who remembers how you take your tea. A nurse who takes time to listen, not just treat. Someone who helps you stay in the place you love most – your home.

Our nursing team doesn't just provide clinical care. We build relationships. We understand that managing your health is about more than medications and wound dressings – it's about maintaining your independence, your routine, and your sense of self.

Home-based nursing that puts you first, always.

In-home nursing services include wound care, health checks and medication support. Our RNs and ENs support your health, independence and wellbeing.

🎉 75 Years of Care and Connection

This October, we proudly celebrated 75 years of serving older South Australians with compassion, dignity, and personalised care.

From our beginnings in 1950 to becoming the first South Australian organisation to accept Home Care Packages in 1993, our journey has always been guided by one constant: putting relationships at the heart of everything we do.

"It's clear that ageing in place is becoming a top priority… what makes it work isn't just the services, it's the human connection," shares Grace Scaffidi, our CEO.

We're honoured to hear from former CEO Kingsley Curtis, who now experiences our care firsthand, reflecting on how Life Care continues to deliver "excellent, caring, friendly and efficient service."

As we look to the future with innovations in technology and expanded services, our mission remains unchanged: fostering relationships of care that generate fullness of life.
