What Daily Personal Activities Covers
The Daily Personal Activities registration group includes the following services. When referring, match the specific service type to the participant's plan goals and funded line items.
Personal Care Support
Assistance with showering, dressing, grooming, toileting, and other personal hygiene tasks. The most common form of daily personal support. Workers need appropriate training in manual handling and personal care techniques.
Meal Preparation
Preparing meals according to dietary requirements, assisting with eating, managing food safety. Can include teaching meal preparation skills if funded under Capacity Building.
Medication Prompting
Reminding and assisting participants to take medication as prescribed. Note: support workers cannot administer medication unless specifically trained and authorised. For medication administration, refer to community nursing.
Morning and Evening Routines
Structured support to establish and maintain daily routines. Particularly important for participants with cognitive or psychosocial disabilities who benefit from consistency and structure.
Domestic Assistance
Light housework, laundry, and basic home maintenance tasks that the participant cannot do due to their disability. Often combined with personal care in the same shift to maximise efficiency.
Common Referral Scenarios
Real-world situations where you would refer a participant for daily personal activities in Ferntree Gully.
A participant needs daily morning support (shower, dressing, breakfast) from 7-9am, five days a week. Look for providers with strong rosters who can guarantee the same worker or a small team for consistency.
A participant with complex personal care needs (PEG feeding, catheter care) requires workers with specific clinical training. Check whether the provider holds both Daily Personal Activities AND High Intensity registration.
A participant transitioning from hospital to home needs temporary increased personal care hours while they build independence. Set a clear review date in the service agreement to step down hours as capacity improves.
A participant with psychosocial disability needs flexible support that can vary week to week depending on their mental health. Find a provider comfortable with variable rosters rather than fixed weekly schedules.
What to Expect After Referral
Most personal care providers conduct an initial home visit to assess the participant's needs, home environment, and any risks. They then develop a support plan matching the participant's preferences (gender of worker, cultural background, shift times). Expect 1-2 weeks to get a regular roster established. Good providers offer a meet-and-greet with the assigned worker before services begin.
Red Flags to Watch For
Warning signs that a daily personal activities provider may not be delivering quality services.
Frequent worker changes without explanation or participant consultation
Workers consistently arriving late or leaving early
Provider unable to fill shifts, leaving the participant without support
No incident reporting process for falls, injuries, or medication errors
Provider not adjusting support plans as the participant's needs change
Charging for full shifts when workers arrive late or leave early
How Daily Personal Activities Works with Other Supports
Daily Personal Activities often works alongside Community Participation (combining personal care with community access in the same shift), Household Tasks (bundled in the same visit), and Community Nursing (for clinical tasks the support worker cannot perform). When personal care hours are high, consider whether SIL might be more appropriate and cost-effective.

Referral Tips for Daily Personal Activities
Before referring, confirm the participant's Core Supports budget has sufficient funds for the hours needed. Request a service agreement that specifies shift times, cancellation terms, and worker consistency requirements. For participants with complex personal care needs, check whether the provider also holds High Intensity Daily Personal Activities registration.

Cancellation Policy
