Personal Care

Respectful, safe support for everyday living.

At Smyth Support, our Personal Care service is designed for people who need assistance with daily self-care tasks while maintaining dignity, choice, and independence. We support older Australians, NDIS participants, and private clients with personalised care that is consistent with individual goals and preferences.

What We Do

We provide care in the client’s home or community setting and personalise every visit based on supported routines, needs, and consent. This service may include:

  • Hygiene support: Assistance with showering, bathing, grooming, oral care, and skincare.

  • Dressing and grooming: Helping clients choose and put on suitable clothing.

  • Mobility support: Safe assistance with transferring, walking, and moving around the home.

  • Continence support: Respectful assistance with continence needs and toilet routines.

  • Eating and drinking support: Helping with safe mealtime practices as agreed with the client.

  • Support is delivered with respect, clear communication, and a focus on independence wherever possible. 

How It Works

Before support begins, we work with clients and their representatives to:

  • Understand routines, preferences, risks, and goals.

  • Identify how much support is needed, and when.

  • Tailor care in line with NDIS or My Aged Care plans.

  • Ensure cultural, communication, and safety needs are respected.

Every support worker is screened, trained, and supervised to deliver care that is safe, respectful, and in line with recognised quality standards.

Why It Matters

Good personal care isn’t just about tasks — it’s about comfort, confidence, and choice. By supporting people with everyday routines, we help them stay active, feel well, and live safely in their home and community.

Who Can Access This

This service can be accessed:

  • Through NDIS funding plans where Personal Care is included.

  • Through My Aged Care funded home support (where the client is eligible).

  • As a private (self-funded) service.

Note: Eligibility depends on funding type, goals, and assessment outcomes.
