Daily Living & Social Support

Assistance with daily life is a support category in the core supports budget. It's for assistance or supervision of personal tasks during day-to-day life that enable the participant to live as independently as possible. These supports can be provided in a range of environments, including your own home.  

Examples of home and living support that may be required because of your disability include: 

• Supports that build capacity to live independently in the community; this includes supports to improve living skills, money and household management, social and communication skills and behavioural management 

• Support with personal care, such as assistance with showering and dressing (where required) 

• Home help where the participant is unable to undertake these tasks due to their disability, such as assistance with cleaning and laundry.
