Supporting Your Daily Life and Community Engagement
At LIFE STEPS CARE, we are committed to empowering you to live independently, stay connected, and participate actively in your community. Our tailored services are designed to meet your individual needs, whether it's assisting with everyday tasks, supporting your social participation, or helping you access the resources you need to thrive.
We help you with everyday tasks such as personal hygiene, dressing, medication management, and financial support to promote independence and confidence. We also assist with household chores like meal preparation, cleaning, laundry, and yard maintenance, ensuring your home is a safe and comfortable environment. Additionally, we provide assistive equipment for domestic activities—such as cooking aids and safety devices—making daily routines easier.
What is not covered by NDIS Assistance for Daily Life funding?
‘Everyday costs’ will not be covered by your NDIS funding, for this category or others. This means costs that everyone must pay, for items or services not directly related to your disability needs. Some examples of this include:
Rent, board or mortgage payments.
Food or grocery bills (including delivered meals).
Personal care and toiletry items unrelated to your disability.
Household items like cleaning supplies.
Entertainment and event tickets (such as concerts, movies, and other recreational activities).
We supply mobility aids—including wheelchairs, walking frames, and transfer aids—to help you move around safely and comfortably. We also offer assistive products for personal care and safety like pressure mattresses, bathroom equipment, and specialized clothing, supporting your well-being at home and beyond.
Getting where you need to go is essential. We assist with transportation arrangements for medical appointments, work, education, and social activities. This includes:
General transport for trips to community activities or appointments, such as paying providers to ensure access to essential services.
Specialized transport for travel to schools, employment, or community events, ensuring individuals with specific needs can travel safely and comfortably.
Travel training to help you build confidence and skills to use public transport independently.
We believe in the importance of community inclusion. Our programs support you in engaging with your local community through activities such as:
Attending movies, visiting malls, cafes, or gaming centers
Participating in cultural, social, or civic events
Joining community clubs or recreational groups
We also facilitate Innovative Community Participation, supporting individuals with extraordinary needs to take part in community activities that match their personal circumstances. For example:
Enjoying a movie night
Visiting a gaming center in Perth
Shopping trips to malls
Socializing at cafes
Our goal is to help you overcome barriers and build meaningful connections, reducing social isolation and fostering a sense of belonging.
