Assistance with Personal Activities
This support category is designed to help NDIS participants perform personal tasks that they may not be able to do on their own due to their disability. It ensures individuals can maintain their personal hygiene, health, and general wellbeing in their preferred living environment — whether at home or in shared housing.
Types of Personal Activities Covered
Depending on the participant’s plan and needs, supports may include help with:
- Personal hygiene—showering, bathing, oral care, dressing
- Toileting and continence needs
- Eating and drinking assistance
- Mobility and transfers – such as getting in/out of bed or a wheelchair
- Medication prompting or administration
- Getting ready for the day—morning and evening routines
- Support with using aids or appliances
- Assistance with grooming and appearance
- Help with daily routines at home or in the community
Where We Can Deliver This Support
- At home (own home, family home, supported accommodation)
- In shared living environments (such as group homes)
- In the community, if needed for maintaining personal care while out and about
- During short-term accommodation (respite care)
The level of support is based on
✔️ Your individual needs
✔️ Goals outlined in your NDIS plan
✔️ Recommendations from allied health professionals (e.g., occupational therapists)
