Are you currently living with a disability in Australia? If so, then it’s important to be aware that there are various support options available to you that you should consider and explore. The NDIS was established in 2013 to ensure that people living with disabilities could achieve the quality of life they deserved. This includes providing various types of support including domestic assistance. On this page, we’ll explain everything that you need to know about NDIS domestic assistance including what to expect from this service and how to get the most from your care plan or package.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme is the best option to ensure that people who are living with a disability receive the best support at home. Similar to other services available through the NDIS, assistance with personal activities is not intended as a singular, one-size fits all solution. Instead, this service is set up and based around the individual who requires this type of support.
This means that there are lots of different ways to explore and use your NDIS personal assistance plan. For instance, it can be used for getting support with housekeeping, shopping, meal preparation in the home, gardening and so much more. As long as domestic assistance is part of your funding, then we will be ready to assist you with all your needs.
Domestic assistance is a part of your plan intended to ensure that you always feel safe, taken care of, and comfortable in your home. It means that people with disabilities will never need to worry about living in a home with a poor level of maintenance or struggling with a task that they are unable to complete by themselves. Depending on your disability this could include ordering and putting away the shopping, cleaning and tidying up the home or ensuring that your home is safe and free from potential hazards. With domestic support assistance, you can depend on a professional carer supplied by our team who will take care of all this for you and so much more.
If you think that you might benefit from NDIS support assistance, then the first step will be to check if you are eligible for NDIS funding. Anyone living with a long term disability that impacts their life significantly who is an Australian citizen or New Zealand Citizen with a special visa and is under the age of 65 can access this type of support. If you think that you are eligible, you will need to apply for funding.
Do be aware that this can be a long and complex process. As experts in the industry, we can provide the advice that you need and make this journey far easier, ensuring that you do not run into roadblocks along the way.
Once you are determined to be eligible for support such as assistance with daily personal activities, then you will be asked to attend a meeting with the NDIA. At this point, you will be asked about different aspects of your life and discuss the type of care and support that you need.
At this stage, you can then choose the right NDIS provider for your needs. You have the freedom to choose the right NDIS provider for you who will be able to provide for your needs and off you the right level of support from day one.
