Daily Living Support
Our daily living support services help you maintain independence and dignity in your own home. From personal care to household tasks, our experienced support workers provide compassionate, reliable assistance tailored to your individual needs and preferences.
What Is Daily Living Support?
Daily living support encompasses the assistance you may need to carry out everyday activities in your home and community. Under the NDIS, this falls primarily under Core Supports — Assistance with Daily Life (Support Category 1). Our support workers are trained to provide help with personal care activities such as showering, dressing, and grooming, as well as household tasks including cleaning, laundry, meal preparation, and home maintenance. We understand that everyone's needs are different, which is why we develop individualised support plans that respect your routines, preferences, and goals. Our approach is always strengths-based — we focus on what you can do and support you to build greater independence over time.
Our Approach to Daily Living Support
At Ubuntu Support Services, daily living support is about far more than completing tasks. It is about building a genuine relationship with your support worker, feeling comfortable and safe in your own home, and having the confidence to live life on your terms. We carefully match you with support workers who share your interests and understand your cultural background. Our team undergoes extensive training in person-centred care, manual handling, medication management, and cultural competency. We also provide regular supervision and quality checks to ensure you are receiving the highest standard of support.
NDIS Funding for Daily Living Support
Daily living support is typically funded under Core Supports in your NDIS plan. The specific line items may include Assistance with Self-Care Activities, Assistance with Household Tasks, and Assistance with Daily Personal Activities. If you are self-managed or plan-managed, you have the flexibility to choose Ubuntu Support Services as your provider. If your plan is NDIA-managed, our team can help you explore your options. Our team can help you understand your funding and ensure you are getting the most value from your plan.
