Sheppcare Services

Sheppcare Services is a disability support provider based in Shepparton, Victoria, focused on inclusion, choice and helping people live life on their own terms. Its mission is to support people to reach their full potential without discrimination, while fostering a community that respects individual values and rights. The organisation works with professionals from fields including nursing, therapy, psychiatry, and speech and language therapy to provide support tailored to clients’ needs.

Services include personal care, domestic assistance, medication support, community nursing, and assistance with travel and transportation. Sheppcare also offers mental health and disability support, help with leisure and community participation, and training to develop everyday living skills. Its approach aims to promote wellbeing while supporting each person’s independence and control over their decisions.

Families can discuss their needs with the team and share preferences for selecting a support worker. Sheppcare says its workers undergo background and suitability screening, and it can help arrange an alternative worker if the match is not right.
