Unwavering care. Support that connects.
Navigate the world around you, increase your capacity and live the life you want to lead – on your terms.
A mission to help people reach their potential
Our mission is to help people like you reach your potential. And this means providing you or your loved ones with support specific to your or their unique needs, abilities and goals.
We have highly trained specialists, evidence-based frameworks, and continuous training programs for both physical and psychosocial disabilities. Using active support and recovery-oriented models, our vision is to set the standard for increasingly consistent and compassionate care that you can rely on.

Stories from happy clients
Eva
Eva suffered an ischemic infarct in the left middle cerebral artery, affecting a large portion of her temporal lobe. As a result, she has reduced active movement and strength in her right arm and leg. Despite the severity of her stroke and limited to no movement on her right side, it has not deterred her from setting goals and striving for independence.
She was transferred from Lyell McEwin Hospital to Care and Connects at the end of 2024. Since then, Eva has been focused on improving her communication skills and establishing a daily exercise routine. She collaborates actively with our staff and other professionals to enhance her quality of life.
“Determination” is the best word to describe Eva—a woman committed to transforming her current situation into a chapter she can overcome.

Andrej
Andrej needed support for interstate travel to reunite with his family, but faced multiple rejections in his search for dependable support. That’s when Care & Connects stepped in to help.
We provided a 12-day period of Short-Term Accommodation (STA) support along with an accessible vehicle, enabling Andrej to make the journey.
After the initial travel support, we continued to provide community participation services, focusing on enriching Andrej’s social interactions and community engagement.
With personalised care from a dedicated support worker and a comprehensive approach to building independence, Andrej affirms, “Care & Connects are brilliant – they’re just good at everything!”
