Personal Care Services with Dignity and Respect – What to Expect
Personal care is one of the most essential support services under the NDIS. At OpenHearted Support, we believe every individual deserves care that upholds their dignity, privacy, and independence. Our personal care services are designed to help participants live safely, comfortably, and confidently at home.

What Does NDIS Personal Care Cover?

NDIS personal care support refers to assistance with daily self-care activities that a person may not be able to do independently due to a disability. These include:

  • Showering and bathing
  • Grooming and oral hygiene
  • Dressing and undressing
  • Toileting and continence care
  • Mobility and transferring support
  • Assistance with eating or drinking

    • These supports are funded under the Core Supports category in your NDIS plan and are tailored to your individual needs and preferences.
