Aged care homes in South Australia

259 aged care homes across 186 suburbs and towns.

Aged care in South Australia, by the numbers

South Australia has 259 aged care homes spread across 186 suburbs and towns, holding 19,067 funded places between them. About 62% are in major cities, so supply is spread more evenly across regional areas than in most states.

Across the 207 rated homes, the average overall Star Rating is 3.67 out of 5, below the national average of 3.83 by 0.16. A state average is a blunt instrument though: the gap between the best and worst home in any single suburb is usually wider than the gap between states.

Home care providers in South Australia · How every state compares

How this list works. Every service shown here comes from the Australian Government aged care service list. Nobody can pay to be ranked higher, and nobody can pay to hide a rating. When you request personalised options, providers who take part pay CareShortlist a flat referral fee. That fee never changes what you see here and is never charged to you. Read exactly how we work.
