Support Worker
Support Worker Perth
At Hale Foundation, we provide support workers in Perth who NDIS participants can rely on for practical day-to-day support. A support worker can help with everyday tasks, routines, community access, and building confidence in daily life. We work alongside you in a way that fits your goals. You can also explore our wider disability support services to see what other support may suit your needs.
What Support Can Disability Support Workers Provide?
Support workers can help with a wide range of tasks, depending on your needs and NDIS plan. This might include personal care, meal preparation, help around the house, getting to appointments, and support to take part in social and community activities. The aim isn’t just to get through the day, but to make life feel more manageable and support you to do more for yourself where possible. For many people, the right support worker can bring more consistency, confidence, and independence in daily life.
Why Choose Hale Foundation's Support Workers?
We take a practical and personal approach to support work. That means taking the time to understand how you live, what you want help with, and what kind of support feels right for you. Our Perth support workers can assist with things like personal care, daily routines, household tasks, community access, and building everyday skills, with support shaped around your goals rather than a fixed routine. As a local NDIS provider, Hale Foundation also offers a broader range of services if your support needs change over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
A support worker is not the same as a therapist, nurse, or support coordinator, unless they’re separately qualified for those roles. They can help with practical day-to-day support, but they shouldn’t make decisions about your plan, provide clinical treatment, or do tasks outside their training.
It can be, but it depends on your NDIS plan. Support work is often funded through categories such as Assistance with Daily Life or Assistance with Social and Community Participation, where it helps you work towards your goals and live more independently.
Yes, if the support worker isn’t the right fit, you can talk to us about a change. Having someone who suits your communication style, routine, and support needs matters, especially when support is part of your regular week.
That depends on your needs, goals, and what’s funded in your NDIS plan. Some people see a support worker every day, while others may see them a few times a week or for help with specific activities or appointments.
