Capacity Building supports · Improved Daily Living Skills

Life skills and daily living skills support

Registered NDIS provider 4-L3B1CJR. Equal Access Care supports NDIS participants Australia-wide, with offices in Melbourne and Brisbane. Our workers come to you.

Building life skills and daily living skills is about doing more for yourself, at a pace that makes sense for you. We work with you on the practical life skills that matter in your everyday life.

Who it's for

This support suits participants with Capacity Building funding who have independence goals in their plan, such as cooking, managing money or getting around on their own.

What's included

  • Cooking, shopping and budgeting skills
  • Learning to use public transport
  • Managing appointments, mail and household admin
  • Personal safety and decision-making skills
  • Notes on your progress that you can use at plan review

We break goals into small steps and practise them in real settings, like your kitchen or the local shops. You set the goals, and we adjust as you go.

How referral works

  1. Get in touch

    Call 0412 306 722 or email admin@equalaccesscare.com.au with the basics. Support coordinators can keep details de-identified until consent is in place.

  2. We call you back the same day

    We'll ask about goals, needs and what's in the plan.

  3. Fartun meets you

    Fartun meets the participant and family to talk through routines, preferences and anything that matters to you.

  4. We match consistent workers

    We look at what the person wants, such as gender, culture, language and personality, and aim for the same familiar faces each week. We keep you and your support coordinator updated as things progress.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from personal care or household help?

Personal care and household tasks are about getting things done for or with you. Skill building is about learning to do more of them yourself.

Can you help me get ready for my plan review?

Yes. We keep notes on your progress that you and your support coordinator can use at plan review.

Can family be involved?

Yes, if you'd like them to be. Fartun can meet with you and your family at the start to agree on goals.

Can I use this if my plan is self-managed or plan-managed?

Yes. We work with NDIA-managed, plan-managed and self-managed participants.
