How Carer Gateway works

Carer Gateway is a free service for carers.

You can access Carer Gateway for support, referrals, counselling, carer coaching, support to get and manage carer payments, tips on caring, tips on looking after yourself, planning for emergencies, planning for the future, carer information sessions, advice and information on long-term sustainable solutions for carers. It’s totally personalised support, based on your situation and needs.

LiveBetter provides Carer Gateway Services across South Eastern New South Wales, Western New South Wales and Murrumbidgee. We also work with our service delivery partners, The Benevolent Society and Mission Australia, in the South Eastern parts of New South Wales to make sure you’re supported.

If you’re interested, the process is easy:

1. Visit the Carer Gateway website to see what services are available.
2. Call 1800 422 737 to register (Mon – Fri, 8am – 5pm).
3. Start accessing our support and services to assist you in your carer role.

We’re here, ready to support you

At LiveBetter, we have a proven track record in helping people in regional Australia live their best lives. We work with and support carers and the people they care for every day.

Our friendly and experienced staff are ready to take your call and listen to what your needs are.

It only takes 5 minutes to register to get help through our Carer Gateway services.

And, if you want, we can put you in touch with a Carer Support planner for a more detailed conversation. They can help you consider different areas of your life, your caring role and how you’re managing, and where else we may be able to support you. All conversations are confidential.

Carer Gateway is the Australian Government’s national approach to providing reliable services, supports and advice to the Australia’s carers.
