Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some frequently asked questions about life skills development and how it can help build independence in daily living.
How is life skills development different from other supports?
Life skills development differs from supports like in-home assistance or household tasks because the focus is on learning, not just completing activities. It provides opportunities for individuals to practice skills and build confidence through structured guidance rather than direct completion of tasks. This service is designed to complement other forms of support by encouraging participation and personal growth through everyday routines and community-based experiences.
How is progress measured in life skills development?
Progress is often reviewed by looking at how individuals engage with the activities set out in their NDIS plan. This might involve noting improvements in independence with routines, increased confidence in communication or the ability to manage tasks with less assistance. Each person’s progress is unique and depends on the specific goals identified during planning and support discussions.
Is life skills development suitable for all ages?
Life skills development is available to NDIS participants of different ages, depending on their plan. For younger participants, activities might focus on learning basic routines or communication, while adults may work on budgeting, cooking or community involvement. The activities chosen reflect the participant’s age, abilities and personal goals, ensuring the support remains relevant and appropriate.
Practical Skills for Everyday Living
Life skills development involves a wide range of structured activities that create opportunities to practice important abilities in safe and familiar environments. This support can extend to tasks like budgeting, grocery shopping, household organisation or learning to use public transport. Each activity is chosen carefully to reflect the needs and goals outlined in the individual’s NDIS plan.
Our role is to provide guidance that encourages participation while ensuring that activities remain safe, structured and achievable. For some, this may mean support with communication and decision making, while for others it might involve learning routines that build confidence in daily life.
Learning for Daily Independence
We also assist with planning daily schedules or preparing for community involvement, offering practical opportunities to apply skills in real-world situations. Services are provided in line with recognised standards and delivered in ways that consider personal circumstances.
