Assist Personal Activities
Overview
Support with everyday personal activities
Assist-Personal Activities is an NDIS Core Support designed to help you with everyday personal care tasks that you may find challenging due to your disability. Our support workers provide respectful, compassionate assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, eating, and mobility - always on your terms and at your pace.
Whether you need a few hours of support each day or more intensive assistance, our team works around your schedule to ensure your personal care needs are met consistently and with dignity. We believe that personal care is deeply personal, and our approach reflects that understanding in every interaction.
Our support is available seven days a week, including public holidays. We understand that personal care routines vary - some participants need help first thing in the morning, others require evening support, and many need assistance throughout the day. We build our schedules around your life, not the other way around. Every participant is assigned a dedicated primary support worker who becomes an expert in your preferences, routines, and communication style, ensuring a seamless and comfortable experience every single day.

How It Works
Getting started with personal care
We make it easy to begin your personal care support journey. Here is the simple process we follow.
Initial Consultation
We meet with you and your family to understand your personal care needs, preferences, routines, and any specific requirements. This is a no-pressure conversation to explore how we can help.
Personalised Care Plan
We create a detailed care plan that outlines the specific supports you will receive, preferred times, worker compatibility, and any special considerations around communication or mobility.
Worker Matching
We carefully match you with a support worker whose skills, personality, and approach align with your needs and preferences. Consistency and compatibility are our top priorities.
Ongoing Reviews
We regularly check in to ensure everything is working well. Your care plan evolves as your needs change, and we adjust support levels, schedules, or workers as required.
Our Approach
Care that honours your dignity
Our approach to personal care is built on three foundational principles that guide every interaction with our participants.
Dignity First
Every personal care task is approached with the understanding that dignity is non-negotiable. We preserve your privacy, ask for consent, and communicate clearly at every step.
Choice & Control
You decide who provides your care, when it happens, and how it is done. We follow your lead and adjust our approach to suit your comfort level and preferences.
Consistency & Trust
We assign consistent support workers who build rapport and understand your routines. No rotating strangers - you get familiar faces who know your needs and preferences intimately.
