About us For more than 30 years, Rural Lifestyle Options Australia has been committed to bridging gaps in support across rural and regional communities.

Originally founded to provide high-quality disability support, our organisation has since expanded to deliver a broad range of services under the NDIS, as well as personalised Aged Care Support at Home (SAH) that empower older Australians to live independently at home for longer.

Reinforced by our purpose of ‘Tailored supports and compassionate care delivered by our valued team to inspire individuals to lead independent and fulfilling lives within the community’ we achieve this – one person and one life goal at a time.

Rural Lifestyle Options Australia’s commitment to the people who access our services remains resolute, proudly underpinned by our organisation’s motto of “Big enough to provide the service, small enough to look after you.” For more information about who we are and what we do, please visit our website at www.rloa.org.au
