SA Disability Care knows that sometimes you need a little helping hand with daily personal care activities. Our friendly and discreet support workers can help provide personal care supports to aid with day-to-day tasks and help make life easier.

Our personal care services cover a variety of activities, ranging from general assistance to more complex needs. This includes but is not limited to:

• Grooming
• Showering
• Toileting
• Continence Assistance
• Assistance with eating
• Dressing and undressing
• General mobility

We understand that even where a participant has family or friends who are willing to assist with these activities, they may prefer more discreet assistance so they may retain their dignity.

Supports to provide assistance with daily personal activities should generally be limited to a maximum of 6 hours per day. This level of support is based on:

• bathing, dressing, toileting and grooming up to 2 hours per day – including bowel management, skin care, bladder management, menstrual care;
• assistance with eating up to 2 hours per day which may include assistance with medication;
• mobility including exercise, positioning, moving up to 1 hour per day; and
• where toileting assistance alone is required, up to 1 hour a day.

With tailored care plans and solutions, we can meet your everyday needs and goals.
