The CareSide in Hobart, Tasmania
The CareSide is proud to offer the best aged care in Tasmania (TAS). We save our clients 30-50% on the cost of in-home care compared to other providers, all while delivering the most reliable home care services and maximising home care package (HCP) funds.
Home care in Hobart has never been more important: older Australians are opting against aged care facilities and community care settings in favour of remaining in their own homes, meaning support services need to be accessible, dependable and affordable.
As the second oldest city in Australia, Hobart is home to nearly half of the Tasmanian population. Its idyllic backdrop alone—from the majestic kunanyi / Mount Wellington to the snaking River Derwent—makes Greater Hobart a popular destination, especially for people looking to unplug and enjoy nature.
Biking, hiking, surfing, kayaking and rock climbing are all popular activities in southern Tasmania, and landmarks such as Battery Point, The Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), Salamanca Market, Cascades Female Factory and the 200-year-old Cascade Brewery attract Australians and travellers of all ages.
Considering the renowned collection of sites and activities in Hobart and across Tasmania, in general, it’s no surprise that many older people would choose to spend their retirement years there or in other popular cities such as Launceston. But in the middle of all that history and adventure, aged care services need to be a priority so elders can continue living at home with a high quality of life.
That’s where The CareSide comes in.
How is The CareSide Different?
As a family-owned company, The CareSide was founded in 2017 with a simple mission: provide the best home care services in Australia at the most affordable price.
We know how overwhelming home care can be, even with excellent tools like My Aged Care available.
Our team takes the complexity out of home care by helping you and your loved ones navigate government rules and regulations while maximising the value of your home care package funds.
With The CareSide, you get the same carer every time, precisely at the times you choose, with no locked-in contracts, no hidden fees and a 100% money-back guarantee. We back our professional expertise with unrivalled customer service and a proven track record that includes more than one million hours of tailored home care across Australia, including Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.
Home Care Services in Hobart
Your home care package funds should go directly toward your care—not toward administrative fees. We’re passionate about making sure your funding gets you the home help you need, be it for short-term care, complex care or any other domestic assistance. We’ll never push you to purchase a standard package of home care services, because we believe your care services should be tailored to your individual needs.Â
We support all of our clients with dedicated Care Managers at no additional cost. Your personal Care Manager will work with you to design a package that matches the exact types of care you need based on your funding and eligibility.

Cost-Effective Care Solutions
On average, The CareSide is 30%–50% less expensive than other home care providers. That directly translates into 30%–50% more hours of care for our clients. We charge a flat 15% rate, meaning our clients have more funding in their Home Care Packages for actual care—no matter their package level.
There are no entry or exit fees, no consultation fees, no add-on invoices, and no hidden fees. Our monthly financial statements are clear and simple to understand, and you can stop or change your plan at any time.
So how do we do it?
We have developed proprietary software that automates administrative functions, effectively eliminating the need for large teams of back-office staff.Â
Our operating costs are simply much lower than other home care providers, and we pass those savings on to our clients. In fact, our systems are so efficient that notable organisations such as the Aged Care Safety and Quality Commission and LASA have encouraged us to share them with other home care companies.Â
Home care in Tasmania has never been this easy.
Building Trust in Home Care
Home care is a relationship built on trust.
For us, there’s nothing more important than the trust you place in the care teams who come to your home or the homes of loved ones.
Carers aren’t simply support workers who stop by someone’s home every week; they’re healthcare professionals who deliver personal, intimate care and even social support. They might be handling meal preparation, washing laundry, administering delicate dementia care, and assisting with showering.
You don’t want to receive personal home care from a stranger—and with The CareSide, you never will. We make sure you work with the same care worker every time so you can build a trusting, collaborative relationship and feel confident in the care you receive.
Home Care Services in Hobart
We select, train, and directly employ all of our carers, and we guarantee the quality of their skills, courtesy and professionalism. If your preferred carer is ever unavailable due to a scheduling conflict or illness, we will always discuss your options with you before dispatching a substitute care worker.Â
We have staff who are fluent in various languages and understand cultural needs, meaning we can match you with a carer who fits your requirements and preferences. And if you’re ever dissatisfied with your home care for any reason, we’ll work with you to solve the problem and find a carer who’s a better fit.
Your care should be convenient for you, so we’ll never give you a broad window of time when your carer might arrive. We’ll always schedule a specific time and day that you choose, allowing you to confidently plan your day and schedule all the activities that matter most to you.
