Vivir Healthcare

What Vivir Healthcare does

Vivir Healthcare is an Australian allied health services provider founded in 2000, delivering physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, dietetics, and exercise physiology across four primary service settings: home care, residential aged care facilities, NDIS (disability), and private services, with supplementary telehealth delivery. The company operates a network of nearly 500 clinicians providing services in-person across all Australian states and territories, including metropolitan, regional, rural, and remote areas, and has supported more than 500 residential aged care facilities since inception. Its telehealth stack is built on Microsoft Teams video conferencing, supplemented by an internally developed hybrid Telehealth To You (TH2U) model that pairs virtual clinician consultations with in-person Allied Health Assistants to extend reach into underserved communities. A technology partnership with SmithKit integrates menu development and nutrition management into the residential aged care offering, aligning with Accreditation Standard 6 compliance.

Vivir Healthcare generates revenue primarily through Australian government-funded programs — Home Care Packages (HCP), Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP), Short Term Restorative Care (STRC), NDIS, and the AN-ACC model for residential aged care — supplemented by private pay channels and value-added services such as Workplace Health Assessments and Manual Handling training. Services are accessed via referral forms, phone contact, care managers, support coordinators, and direct consumer outreach, with go-to-market motions combining sales-led referral partnerships with direct-to-consumer access for NDIS participants and private individuals. Pricing is determined by government fee schedules or private health insurance coverage, and is not publicly disclosed.

The company is a privately held subsidiary of RGF Staffing ANZ, itself part of the RGF Staffing group owned by Japan's Recruit Holdings Ltd (the listed parent of Indeed and Glassdoor). Vivir operates alongside sister brands Chandler Macleod, Peoplebank, Aurion, and ahs hospitality within the ANZ staffing group. The company's stated mission is to improve access to allied healthcare so every person can continue living a meaningful life wherever they live. It holds LASA affiliate status, is a registered NDIS provider, and maintains a clinical governance framework supported by programs including Graduate Support, Rural Relocation, and an Overseas Qualified Limited Registration pathway for internationally trained clinicians.
