Daily Living Support
The Daily Living / Life Skills service supports people with a disability or illness to develop and maintain the skills needed to live their daily lives. This includes day-to-day activities such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping and managing money. If you have a disability or illness that affects your ability to manage these tasks, this service can help you learn how to take care of yourself.
When you first start using the NDIS, it’s important that you tell us what support you need. We’ll work with you to understand what changes you want in your life and how we can help make them happen. This might mean attending an appointment with an NDIS planner who will discuss your goals and needs with you.
Then we’ll work out how much support you need. This could be a single appointment or ongoing support from our team of advisors at home or in the community over time. It might also include other services like transport or equipment such as wheelchairs or hearing aids for daily tasks such as driving or hearing from others around us in public places like cafes, restaurants and shops.
The Daily Living / Life Skills program includes:
- Assistance with daily tasks like cooking and cleaning, laundry, shopping, and making doctor’s appointments
- Hands-on training in personal care, such as bathing, dressing, grooming and using the bathroom
- Help with financial planning and budgeting
- Training in community integration activities, such as going out for dinner or taking public transportation
Individualised care Plans
Individualised care plans are personalised documents outlining specific support and services tailored to the unique needs and preferences of individuals. These plans are collaboratively developed between the individual, their caregivers, and support providers. They detail goals, strategies, and interventions to address medical, social, and functional needs. By ensuring services are customised to the individual’s circumstances, preferences, and goals, individualised care plans promote person-centred care, optimise outcomes, and enhance quality of life.
Daily Living Disability Services
Daily living disability services offer essential support and assistance to individuals with disabilities in managing their everyday activities. These services encompass personal care, meal preparation, medication management, mobility assistance, and household chores. Highly trained caregivers provide hands-on support tailored to the individual’s specific needs and preferences, promoting independence and well-being. By assisting with daily tasks, these services enable individuals with disabilities to live more comfortably and confidently, enhancing their quality of life and overall satisfaction.
