Are You A Carer?

People become Carers in different ways. Sometimes they start helping someone out bit by bit. Sometimes it happens suddenly, because of an accident or illness. Carers can be any age. Parents, grandparents, partners, siblings, children, friends and neighbours may all take on a caring role at some point in their life. 

Australia has over 2.7 million Carers, 11% of the population. It is likely you are a Carer, need a Carer or know a Carer.

If you provide personal care, support and/or assistance to family or friends who have 

  • A disability
  • A mental illness
  • Dementia
  • A long term health condition
  • An illness that is terminal
  • An alcohol or drug related problem or
  • Someone who is frail due to age

Then you are a Carer and you can access the support services that Carers SA offers.
