Assist Personal Activities

Daily personal care including grooming, dressing, and hygiene support.

Our Assist Personal Activities service is designed to provide compassionate, person-centered support for participants with their daily self-care routines. We aim to maintain independence, dignity, and comfort while ensuring safety and well-being.

Keeping up personal hygiene and performing it daily is crucial for overall well-being. However, NDIS participants often are unable to complete these tasks. That is why we at Distinct Disability Service Australia came up with the Assist Personal Activities service across Adelaide.

Why Personal Care Support Matters
