We match participants with support workers who are not just qualified — but genuinely suited to the person, their goals and their way of life.
NDIS Direct Support covers the hands-on, day-to-day assistance that helps participants live independently, stay connected to their community, and work toward their goals. At Disability Talk, we take the matching process seriously — because consistency and trust matter.
NDIS Direct Support is for participants with Core Supports funding in their NDIS plan. It suits people who need regular assistance with daily life, community participation or skill development.
Direct support is funded from your Core Supports — Assistance with Daily Life or Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation budgets.
Daily living activities
Assistance with personal care, grooming, meal preparation, medication prompts and household tasks — tailored to your level of independence.
Community access
Getting out and about — appointments, social activities, shopping, recreation — with a support worker who knows you and your preferences.
Skill building
Working toward greater independence in cooking, budgeting, transport, communication or whatever goals matter most to you.
Social and recreational support
Staying connected — whether that's a regular outing, a hobby, a community group or just time with friends and family.
Overnight and high-intensity support
For participants who need support outside standard hours or who have complex health needs requiring trained workers.
