Support at Home

Choice and Control
Participants remain involved in decisions about their daily support.
Individualised Support

Building Independence

What Is NDIS In-Home Support?
In-home support helps participants complete daily activities safely and comfortably in their own home.
The level of assistance can range from verbal prompting and supervision to more direct support, depending on the participant’s abilities, preferences and assessed needs.
Support is designed to strengthen independence rather than take over tasks a participant can safely complete themselves.
