About This Project
Project Overview
This website was created to help elderly individuals and their families find appropriate home care services in the Parramatta area of New South Wales, Australia. Our goal is to provide comprehensive, accurate information about local service providers to help you make informed decisions about elderly care.
We've researched multiple home care service providers who can support elderly people living independently at home, focusing on providers based in or servicing Parramatta and nearby suburbs including North Parramatta, Harris Park, Granville, Westmead, and Oatlands.

Data Sources and Limitations
Information was collected from provider websites, online directories, and publicly available resources. While we've made every effort to ensure accuracy, some information may not be complete or may have changed since our research was conducted.
We've noted where information was "not explicitly stated" or "not explicitly mentioned" to indicate gaps in publicly available data. We recommend contacting providers directly to confirm specific details before making decisions.
Pricing information is based on industry standards and specific provider data where available. Actual costs may vary based on individual circumstances, assessment results, and package levels.
