Household Tasks
Household tasks provide assistance with the cost of preparation and delivery of meals, linen service, house and/or yard maintenance, house cleaning and other household activities.
In relation to household tasks, it is expected that the NDIS will fund reasonable and necessary supports covering either of the following two different approaches
- Supports that build participant capacity and/or skills to complete household tasks independently or to actively participate in these tasks. This may include returning to past roles and functions and/or developing new functional skills and roles relevant to their life stage, or
- Supports that assist the participant where they are not reasonably able to undertake these tasks. Assistance with house cleaning and house and/or garden maintenance are examples.
We are here to help when you need us
