Family Based Care Tasmania

Family Based Care Tasmania (FBC) has been a leading force in the provision of community services in Tasmania for more than 30 years. At FBC we aim to make a difference to those who may be struggling with independent living – whether it be due to ill health, age or disability – by providing various forms of assistance. FBC support services help our clients to live independently in their homes for as long as possible. An ISO 9001 accredited association, Family Based Care is named for our family friendly philosophy; a philosophy which has been sustained through its growth from humble beginnings to the vibrant and progressive organisation it is today. FBC is an approved provider of Home Care Packages and support services under the National Disability Insurance Scheme. Our service areas include domestic assistance, personal care, meal preparation, social support, assistance with shopping, respite and home maintenance and wellness and reablement. FBC also offers an affordable support service to individuals who are not eligible for government assistance. In 2018 FBC acquired Tidswell Consulting and Vocational Assessment Centre, and now delivers professional Vocational Rehabilitation and Vocational Services. FBC also has an interest in meeting the gaps in access to Allied Health Services through our professional and caring teams in My Psychology Tasmania, My Speech Pathology Tasmania, and My Occupational Therapy Tasmania. Our Enhanced Support Team provides Positive Behaviour Support, FIM Assessment, Therapeutic Support, Support Coordination, and Social Workers. Based out of our offices in Burnie, Bellerive, Devonport, Launceston, and Rosebery our highly skilled and qualified staff provide support services to well over 1000 clients across Tasmania. FBC is proud to be an Employer of Choice.
