Assist Personal Activities

What is Personal Care ?

Personal care is support with everyday tasks that help you look after your body, health, and wellbeing. These are the things many people do each day to feel clean, comfortable, and confident.

Personal care may include:

• Showering or bathing
• Dressing and undressing
• Grooming, such as brushing hair or shaving
• Using the toilet
• Personal hygiene
• Help with meals or mobility

How Disability Can Impact Personal Care

Some people with disability may find personal care tasks difficult or unsafe to do on their own. This can be due to physical, sensory, cognitive, or mental health challenges. Needing help with personal care can sometimes affect confidence, privacy, and independence.

At ACN, we understand this and provide support in a way that respects your choices, comfort, and dignity.
