NDIS Provider Caulfield
Hilda Care is a registered NDIS provider in Caulfield supporting participants with personal care, in-home support, community participation, and daily living assistance.Â
Caulfield is a well-connected suburb in Melbourne’s southeast with a large and diverse community. We support participants throughout this area and the surrounding suburbs. Our team works with participants with a wide range of disabilities and with participants managed by support agencies, plans, or self-managed.
Life in Caulfield and How We Fit In
Caulfield is more than a suburb. For the people who live here, it is a community. There are synagogues, cultural groups, local markets along Glen Huntly Road, Caulfield Park, and a network of services and places that participants want to stay connected to.
We built our support around that. Our job is not just to help participants with daily tasks. It is to help them stay part of the community they belong to, reach the places that matter to them, and live as independently as possible in the suburb they call home.
If you or someone you care for needs NDIS support services in Caulfield, we are already here.
Our Range of Disability Support Services in Caulfield
We support participants in Caulfield with practical day-to-day help that fits around their lives, goals, and NDIS plans. Here is what that looks like:
We help with showering, dressing, grooming, and personal hygiene. We send the same support worker each time, so participants feel comfortable and at ease in their own home.
In-Home Support
We help with cooking, cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping. Caulfield has good access to supermarkets and fresh food options along Glen Huntly Road, and we help participants make use of what is close by.
Caulfield has local parks, community centres, synagogues, and cultural groups that participants want to stay connected to. We go with you so you can attend appointments, visit local places, and stay part of the community you belong to.
We help with tasks that have become harder because of your disability. This is covered under Core Supports in your NDIS plan and covers a range of day-to-day needs.
Getting around Caulfield and across Melbourne’s south-east can be hard without the right help. We take you to medical appointments, therapy sessions, and local services so you do not miss anything important. Our travel and transportation support covers this under your NDIS plan.
Who Lives in Caulfield and Who We Work With
Caulfield has a large Jewish community, a mix of older residents who have lived here for decades and younger families who are newer to the area.Â
Participants From Caulfield’s Jewish Community
We understand the importance of cultural and religious preferences for many participants in Caulfield. We take this into account when matching support workers and scheduling support to align with Shabbat, Jewish holidays, and cultural preferences.
Older Participants Managing Ongoing Health Conditions
Caulfield has a number of older long-term residents living with physical disabilities, chronic conditions, and the effects of ageing with a disability. We provide personal care in Caulfield and in-home support to help them stay safely in their own homes.
Participants With Psychosocial Disability
Caulfield is close to several community mental health services in Melbourne’s south-east. We support participants living with the ongoing effects of a mental health condition with consistent, practical help that covers our broader disability support services and is built around their recovery goals.
Participants Transitioning Out of Hospital
We work with participants who are coming home after a hospital stay and need structured support to rebuild their daily routine. For participants recovering from a neurological event or injury, our acquired brain injury support covers this specific need.
What It Feels Like to Have the Right Support Worker
Many participants have had experiences with support workers who were not the right fit. Someone who did not speak their language, did not understand their background, or changed every few weeks without warning.
We do things differently. Before your support starts, we consider your disability, your goals, your cultural background, the language you speak at home, and the kinds of people you work well with. In Caulfield, that often means finding someone who understands Jewish cultural practices, speaks a second language, or has experience with a specific disability type.
The match is based on your needs, not our schedule. And if it is not right, we can always change it.
Understanding Your NDIS Funding
A lot of participants in Caulfield come to us, not sure what their plan actually covers. Here is a simple way to think about it:
- Core Supports: This is the part of your plan that pays for everyday help. Personal care in Caulfield, household tasks, community access, and transport all sit here. Many everyday supports are funded through Core Supports, depending on your NDIS plan.
- Capacity Building: This pays for supports that help you build skills and become more independent over time. Things like life skills development and psychosocial recovery coaching fall under this category.
- Not Sure What You Have: Talk to your support coordinator or plan manager, and they can check your plan with you.
We work with agency-managed, plan-managed, and self-managed participants. Whatever your setup is, we can work with it.
