NDIS Registration Group: 0115 – Assistance with Daily Life Tasks in a Group or Shared Living Arrangement

Daily Tasks / Shared Living

What Does Assistance with Daily Tasks / Shared Living Mean?

Assistance with Daily Tasks / Shared Living (Group 0115) is a Core Support designed for NDIS participants who live in a shared or group setting—such as a Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), host family arrangement, or group home—and need ongoing or short-term help with day-to-day household routines. This registration group focuses on developing each person’s skills to live as autonomously as possible, while ensuring safety, dignity, and a sense of community. NDISRose Aged Care Service

Key elements of this support include:

Daily Household Routines

Hands-on assistance or supervision with tasks like cleaning, laundry, and basic home maintenance to keep living spaces safe and well-organised.

Promoting Independent Living Skills

Coaching and skill-building to help participants manage their own space—organising rooms, keeping common areas tidy, and understanding shared-living etiquette.

Light Domestic Chores

Support with tasks such as grocery shopping, meal preparation, and maintaining a hygienic environment—ensuring participants can focus on building confidence for more complex living skills.

Shared-Living Environment

Services are provided in a group or shared home, where support workers may deliver one-to-one assistance that’s shared among multiple residents—balancing individual needs and fostering a collaborative atmosphere. NDISRose Aged Care Service

What We Offer Under This Support

At Assist Lifestyle, our qualified support workers specialise in delivering person-centred, strengths-based assistance within shared or private residences. Under Group 0115, we provide:

  • Support with Daily Household Routines
    • Light Cleaning & Laundry
      We help you develop routines for dusting, vacuuming, washing dishes, and managing laundry cycles. Over time, our goal is to teach you step-by-step methods—folding clothes, sorting colours, and operating washing machines—to increase your independence.

    • Grocery Shopping Assistance
      Our team accompanies you on shopping trips: creating a shopping list, comparing prices, and safely navigating the store. We model budgeting techniques and can introduce strategies such as using shopping apps or sticking to a planned list to avoid overspending.

    • Meal Preparation & Cooking
      From planning simple meal menus to chopping vegetables and cooking on stovetops or microwaves, we provide hands-on guidance. We introduce adaptive tools—like non-slip mats, one-handed openers, or cut-resistant gloves—to match your abilities and keep you safe.  Carendis Rose Aged Care Service
  • Promoting Independent Living Skills in Shared or Private Residences
    • Chore Management & Room Organization
      We coach you on setting up cleaning schedules (e.g., “vacuum every Tuesday”) and organizing personal belongings. By learning to use checklists and shared calendars, you’ll know who is responsible for which tasks, reducing confusion and promoting a cooperative living environment.

    • Budgeting for Household Expenses
      If you share expenses—such as utilities, rent, or groceries—with housemates, we help you track bills, split costs evenly, and set reminders for payment deadlines. This ensures transparent communication and prevents misunderstandings in a shared household.

    • Medication and Health Task Supervision
      While this registration group does not replace specific health services, we can remind you to take prescribed medications or assist with organizing pillboxes, liaising with relevant health or nursing providers if specialised skills (e.g., complex medication regimes) are required.  NDISNWDS
  • Light Cleaning, Laundry, Grocery Shopping, and Meal Preparation
    • Tailored Cleaning Plans
      Whether you live alone or with housemates, we’ll work together to develop a cleaning checklist that covers high-traffic areas, kitchen hygiene, and safe disposal of rubbish. Our support workers demonstrate techniques—like using colour-coded cloths to prevent cross-contamination—and gradually reduce direct assistance as you become proficient.

    • Laundry Coaching
      From reading garment labels (e.g., “cold wash only”) to sorting whites and colours, our team ensures you master each step. We introduce energy-saving tips—washing full loads or selecting eco cycles—to help you save on utility bills while caring for your clothes.

    • Meal Planning & Adaptive Cooking
      We guide you through meal-planning templates, show you how to read nutrition labels, and teach safe stovetop practices. Over time, participants learn to prepare balanced meals independently—building confidence and reducing reliance on takeaway or pre-packaged foods.

    • Shopping Budgets & List-Making
      We share practical strategies: using unit-price comparisons, selecting seasonal produce, and avoiding impulse buys. If you prefer online shopping, we can teach you how to compare delivery fees and set up digital payment methods securely.  Carendis Rose Aged Care Service

Holistic & Coordinated Living Pathways

Assistance with Daily Tasks / Shared Living doesn’t stand alone.

Ongoing Monitoring & Advocacy

As you progress, we schedule regular reviews—adjusting support levels if you become more independent or identifying new areas for growth.
