Caring Choice offers a wide range of disability support services, all of which have been created with both the care recipient and carer in mind. We are also honoured to have been included in the provider panel of Disability SA and pride ourselves on providing high quality and reliable support services to South Australians living with an intellectual and/or physical disability.
Community Participation Program
Caring Choice provides quality support to people with a disability, their families and carers. This encourages participation in the development of individual goals and plans through the following programs:-
- Individual and community based activities around individual needs
- Small group and peer programs
In-home care
Personal Care
Dementia Care
Check Visits
Prompting for meals, showering or medication based on a quick visit or simple reminder from a friendly face. Sometimes it's all that clients need to live at home independently.
Respite Care
Respite is a term that means “taking a break” and can be essential to the physical and mental well-being of a family carer. It’s important for you to enjoy some time out knowing that your loved one will be cared for by someone with the right experience. Respite can be arranged whenever it’s required, or on a regular basis.
Domestic Help
Meal Preparation
We can assist Assistance with preparing, cooking and making meals.
Domestic Assistance
We can assist with cleaning, laundry and a range of other domestic services that will make things so much easier for you and your loved one.
Lifestyle services
Social Outings and Companionship
Regular visits can help alleviate loneliness and take pressure off busy families - or families that live interstate or overseas. Companionship visits can take place in the home of the client. Alternatively, we can include a visit to the local coffee shop, hotel, art gallery or sporting event. Read more about our
Caring Choice Lifestyle Program.

Shopping Assistance
Our service includes collection from home by a qualified care worker and shopping at the shops of your choice. We include returning home safely afterwards and assistance with putting the shopping away.
