Aged Care
The Larrakia Nation’s Aged Care Service provides home and community care to people who are frail and/or aged and young adults with a disability. Our service aims to support individuals and families to maintain health, wellbeing and a good quality of life. We achieve this by assisting people to remain in their home and socially connected.
We specialise in providing a culturally appropriate service to Aboriginal people living in Darwin and Palmerston. At the present time, we have more than 80 clients receiving a range of services, depending on their individual needs, delivered by our caring and committed team of 9 staff.
