Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between personal care and community access?
Personal care covers help with self-care tasks (showering, dressing, meals). Community access supports you to participate in social, recreational, or educational activities outside your home.
Can I choose my own support workers?
Yes. You can choose your provider and, in many cases, request specific support workers. Building a consistent team of workers who understand your needs and preferences is encouraged.
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
SIL is NDIS-funded support for participants who need help with daily tasks in their home. It can be shared (group home) or individual, and is designed for people who need regular support to live independently.
How flexible are daily support hours?
This depends on your provider. Many offer flexible scheduling, while SIL and shared support arrangements follow more structured rosters. Discuss your preferred routine during initial meetings.
