In-Home Caring Services in Smithfield, NSW
For ageing Australians, the choice to continue living at home is becoming more popular — the ability to enjoy the comforts of a familiar environment can offer a sense of security and emotional well-being. At Respect, we provide in-home care services in Smithfield, NSW, for older Australians to receive the right support while living at home.
Our Smithfield in-home care services are available for free or at a subsidised rate under the Support at Home Program, which provides funding for eligible individuals aged 65+, or 50+ for Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander individuals. Our professional carers focus on providing reliable personal and medical domestic care for ageing residents to stay safe and comfortable at home.
Get in touch with Respect to learn about your eligibility for subsidised in-home care or to get personalised support with your Support at Home funding application. Our expert care advisors can provide you with step-by-step guidance over the phone.

On 1 November 2025, the Support at Home program replaced the Home Care Packages (HCP) program, providing easier access to and more comprehensive care for ageing Australians who need support for living at home.
