Household Tasks

NDIS participant support

Practical household support for a safer, comfortable home.

Household-task support helps participants maintain a safe, comfortable and organised living environment. Assistance is agreed with the participant and can combine practical help with opportunities to build household skills.

We agree which household activities you would like assistance with and how you prefer them to be completed. Support can combine practical help with opportunities to learn manageable routines for maintaining your home.
