Helping with Daily Living Skills

Helping with daily living skills for an NDIS service provider means providing support to participants with disabilities to complete the everyday tasks that they need to do in order to live independently and participate in the community. This can include a range of tasks, such as:

• Personal care tasks, such as bathing, dressing, and toileting
• Household tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, and laundry
• Budgeting and money management
• Shopping and meal preparation
• Transportation
• Social and communication skills
• Personal development skills

The support is customised as it is based on the individual’s needs and goals. For example, some people may need assistance with all of their daily living skills, while others may only need assistance with certain tasks.

Team at Reaching Sky can offer a range of different supports to help people with daily living skills, including:

• Direct support from a support worker
• Training and support to the person with a disability and their family or carers
• Assistive technology and equipment
• Home modifications

The NDIS can also fund supports to help people with disabilities to develop their daily living skills. For example, funding may be available for therapy services, such as occupational therapy or physiotherapy, to help people learn new skills or improve their existing skills.

Helping with daily living skills is an important part of our service because it helps our participants to live independently and participate in the community. By providing support with daily living skills, our participants can achieve their goals and live full and meaningful lives.

If you are an NDIS participant, based in Cranbourne, Dandenong, Frankston, Point Cook, Tarneit, Kingsville or in Footscray, who needs help with daily living skills, reach out to our team and we will help you identify your needs and develop a plan to get the support you need.
