Support Workers in Mount Gravatt, QLD 4122

Mount Gravatt is on Brisbane's south side, around Logan Road and the mountain lookout, with the Griffith University Mount Gravatt campus and Westfield Garden City in neighbouring Upper Mount Gravatt.

Support workers here help with personal care, meals, shopping, appointments, study and getting out into the community. The South East Busway makes trips into the city easier, but many local trips still need a car, so ask whether a worker drives and how travel is charged.

The list of support workers covering Mount Gravatt is short for now, so check the nearby suburb links and the Brisbane support workers page as well. If you are self managed or plan managed you can use registered and unregistered providers, while agency managed plans need a registered provider.

Support workers are usually paid from your Core budget for help with daily life. For 2026/27 the standard weekday daytime price limit for self care support is $73.58 an hour in most of Australia, from 1 July 2026. Evenings, weekends, public holidays and remote areas have higher limits.

Price limits are a ceiling, not a set rate. If your plan is agency managed or plan managed, providers are paid within them. If you self manage, you are not strictly bound by them, but they are a useful benchmark when you compare quotes.

Two changes are worth knowing. From 1 October 2026, budgets for social, economic and community participation are reduced by 50% when a plan is created, reassessed or renewed, while help in your home is not affected. And the government is consulting on lower prices for some supports from unregistered providers from 1 January 2027.
