Aged Care & Community Services
The Residential Aged Care sector and associated Community Services, such as Disabilities Services, brings in approximately $3.5 million per annum to the Coffs Harbour LGA. This is a sector which is continuing to grow due to the demands of our ageing population and the continual growth of our region.
Residential-based care for older people who cannot live independently at home provides a range of professional opportunities for health care workers.
There are numerous organisations on the Coffs Coast that provide varying levels of care for residents in the region. These include the following (click on each name to read more):
