Bannister In Home Care – Mid North Coast

At Bannister In Home Care, we’re proud to offer personalised, professional, and compassionate support at home for older people living along the Mid North Coast of NSW. With a strong local presence in Forster, Tuncurry, Taree, and surrounding areas, we understand the importance of staying close to community, country, and family. Our dedicated team is committed to helping clients remain independent, comfortable, and connected – all from the familiarity and security of their own homes.

We know that choosing the right provider is a deeply personal decision. That’s why we focus on building genuine relationships, listening to what matters most, and tailoring every care plan to fit the individual. It’s this commitment to genuine care that makes us one of the best home care providers on the Mid North Coast.

About Bannister In Home Care

Bannister In Home Care is an Australian-owned and operated provider of in-home aged care and disability support. Our team delivers high-quality, personalised home care services to seniors and people with disability, always guided by the values of respect, kindness, and flexibility. Whether you need a little help with day-to-day tasks or round-the-clock support, we’re here to help you live life on your terms.

Our Mid North Coast office is part of the local community, staffed by carers and coordinators who live and work across the region. We understand the lifestyle, the culture, and the needs of our clients – and we’re proud to offer a personal touch you won’t find with larger, city-based providers.

We proudly support individuals and families in:

• Forster
• Tuncurry
• Taree
• Smiths Lake

And surrounding Mid North Coast communities

Whether you live in a coastal village or bustling town centre, we’ll come to you with respectful, flexible care designed around your needs.

Our Services

As one of the region’s most trusted aged care providers, we offer a wide range of in-home care options:

Personal Care

• Our support workers assist with everyday activities such as bathing, grooming, dressing, mobility, and continence. We approach this care with discretion, dignity, and a friendly face you can trust.

Domestic Support

• Keeping your home clean, safe, and comfortable is important for your wellbeing. We help with general housework, laundry, meal prep, and shopping, so you can focus on the things that matter most.

Social Support and Companionship

• Loneliness is a growing issue for many older Australians. Our carers offer friendly conversation, community outings, and companionship to help you stay socially and emotionally connected.

Transport and Appointments

• Need a lift to the doctor, the shops, a local event, or even to visit friends and family? We offer safe, reliable, and personalised transport services to help you stay connected to your community and maintain your independence

Respite for Family Carers

• Caring for a loved one can be rewarding, but also exhausting. We provide short-term and ongoing respite care, giving family carers the chance to rest and recharge.

Approved Support at Home Provider

As an approved provider under the Australian Government’s Support at Home program, we offer Classifications 1–8 for clients with varying levels of need. Whether you’re just getting started, transitioning from the former Home Care Packages program, or switching from another provider, we can help you:

• Apply through My Aged Care
• Maximise your funding
• Build a care plan that works for you
• Manage your package with transparency and honesty

We also offer private care options for those not eligible for government funding, or who would prefer to top-up their Support at Home classification with additional services.

Self-Managed Support at Home Program

We support clients who wish to self-manage their Support at Home funding, offering greater flexibility and control without the added stress. You can choose your own carers, set your own schedule, and manage aspects of your budget – while we provide the essential behind-the-scenes support, including mandatory care management, to ensure your care runs smoothly and complies with program requirements. It’s the perfect balance between independence and peace of mind.

NDIS Provider – Mid North Coast

Bannister In Home Care is also a registered NDIS provider, offering a range of services to people living with disability across the Mid North Coast. From support with daily living tasks to community participation and personal development, we work closely with participants and their families to create person-centred plans that align with NDIS goals. Our team provides respectful, empowering support that prioritises choice, control, and independence.
