Commonwealth Home Support Program and Home Care Package
needing help at home?
Barunga Community Care
can support you
Barunga Community Care offers a range of services to people living in the Mid North, Yorke Peninsula, Lower North, Barossa regions, and everywhere in between. Our services can now be delivered to your home to help you… wherever you live.
From support in the garden – keeping things neat by mowing the lawn or trimming the hedge, to help in the home – gathering the essentials on the weekly shop or lightening your load by doing the ironing. We are here to help keep you in your home, in your community.
Did you know you can access over $900.00 of funding a week through a Home Care Package to help you stay at home?
Since receiving help at home, it has allowed us to focus on the things we enjoy in life – Terry goes fishing and I spend time in my sewing room, all while our housework and gardening is done. We are also very thankful for the transport service – travelling to Adelaide for appointments is made easier and stress-free by the BCC team.

It may include services such as domestic assistance, personal care (bathing and dressing etc.), social support, meal preparation, shopping, light gardening, transport and medication support.
