About This Support

What is daily living support?

Daily living support covers the hands-on assistance that makes home life work. It's designed around your routine, not a standard schedule. You decide what to focus on and what matters most to you that day.

The goal isn't just getting tasks done. It's building the confidence and skill to manage more of your daily life independently over time, at whatever speed is right for you.

Support workers are matched to participants based on personality fit and the type of support needed, not just availability.

How It Works

What does a session look like?

A support worker comes to your home at an agreed time. From there, you decide what to focus on. Some days that's personal care in the morning. Other days it's a grocery run and getting the laundry sorted. The pace is yours.

Sessions typically run between one and four hours, depending on what your plan covers and what you need that day. We work with your schedule, not around it.

Over time, the goal is that the support you need becomes the support you want, not the support you have to have.

  • In your home

    All daily living sessions are delivered at your home, on your turf.

  • Flexible session length

    Sessions run 1 to 4 hours based on your plan and what needs doing.

  • Consistent support workers

    We aim to match you with the same worker each visit so the relationship builds.

  • Your priorities, your choice

    You decide what gets done. We support, we don't take over.

NDIS funding for daily living

Daily living support is funded under Assistance with Daily Life (Core Supports, Category 01). This is one of the most common NDIS funding categories and covers both personal care and domestic assistance.

Plan-managed participants: your plan manager handles payments directly with Thrive Pathways. Self-managed participants: you pay and claim through the NDIS portal.
