Frequently asked questions
What is NDIS domestic support?
Domestic support (or domestic assistance) refers to getting help with household and daily tasks, so you can achieve greater independence. Our support workers can assist you with activities like ironing, vacuuming, mopping, meal preparation and gardening. They'll even join you for a cup of tea and a chat afterwards!
Are there any services Like Family can't help with?
We cannot help with medical and personal care services, like toileting and dressing. We also cannot help with professional/deep cleaning or landscaping.
Can I use my NDIS funding to access domestic support?
It depends on your NDIS plan! Funding for domestic support is typically covered by the Assistance with Daily Life category (Core Support).
