Partner with Local Guardians
Reduce Costs, Remove Approved Provider Compliance Burdens and Director Liabilities and Expand your Direct Care Services.
Managing home care packages is complex, time consuming, and financially unviable for many organisations. With Support at Home on the horizon and new caps on care management fees, many businesses are rethinking how to stay competitive.
We’re a Clinically Registered Approved Home Care Provider who partners with organisations delivering care services. Some of our Care Partners are approved providers themselves but choose to work with us because care management isn’t their core business or primary focus. By partnering with Local Guardians, they can hand over the complexities of care management and focus on what they do best – delivering quality care.
Local Guardians are care management and clinical governance specialists
With Local Guardians as your independent care management partner, your organisation continues to lead client relationships and direct care services. Together, we focus on strengthening those relationships, and building new ones, as we grow with new Support at Home clients.

How It All Started
Our story began in 2014 when we were founded as a subsidiary of Capital Guardians, one of Australia’s largest processors of care payments.
Capital Guardians (est 2008) services tens of thousands of clients each year across NDIS, home care and residential aged care. With their backing, we’re able to focus on delivering simple, transparent and cost effective home care package management for our own clients AND those of our partners.
We set out with a clear mission: to give care managers more valuable client time by automating admin tasks and keeping fees low. Since day one, Local Guardians has led the industry with care management fees at 10% or less, delivering more care hours to our clients.
