Care held in culture, delivered on Country

Indicare is a cultural aged care service supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, their families and communities — from everyday help at home through to nursing care.

Who we are

Indicare is a cultural aged care service working across the region, walking beside Elders in their own homes and communities. Our support is shaped by community — guided by Elders, delivered by workers who understand cultural safety, and built on trust that grows over time.

From a hand with the housework to registered nursing care, we make sure culture, family and choice stay at the centre of every decision.

Culture first
