The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding for personal care services that are tailored to the unique circumstances of each participant. It is all about enabling independence, protecting dignity, and supporting full participation in everyday life. NDIS personal care supports involve assistance with or supervision of personal tasks essential to daily life. These supports are available in various settings, including at home, in shared accommodation, at school or work, or even during holidays, anywhere the participant requires assistance to maintain daily routines and quality of life.
NDIS personal care services refer to assistance with essential daily activities such as bathing, showering, oral hygiene, dressing, grooming, and toileting. They may also include help with bladder and bowel management, menstrual care, eating and drinking, and taking medications. For many, personal care extends to mobility support, including transferring in and out of bed, moving safely around the home, or using the toilet. Participants may also receive assistance with using aids, appliances, hearing and communication devices, and splints. In some cases, personal care covers support with attending appointments or participating in community, educational, or work-related activities. As part of its responsibility to deliver effective and appropriate disability services, the NDIA (National Disability Insurance Agency) carefully considers whether a personal care support is “reasonable and necessary” before including it in a participant’s plan. The support must clearly relate to the participant’s disability and help them pursue their personal goals and aspirations. It should also promote independence, be age-appropriate, and offer value for
money.
