Household Tasks

How Disability, Health or Age Can Affect Household Tasks ?

A medical condition, disability, or getting older can make simple household tasks harder.

You may find it difficult to:

• Bend, reach, or lift
• Stand for long periods
• Carry shopping or laundry
• Clean safely without pain or fatigue
• Keep up with daily or weekly chores

These challenges can make it harder to keep your home clean, safe, and organised.

Needing help with household tasks is common and does not mean you are not independent.

How Household Assistance Helps You

Support with household tasks can:

• Make everyday life easier
• Reduce safety risks, such as clutter or slippery floors
• Help you stay healthy and comfortable at home
• Reduce stress and tiredness
• Support your independence

It also helps families and carers by:

• Sharing the workload
• Providing peace of mind that the home is safe
• Supporting you to work towards your NDIS goals
