NDIS Home Care in Melbourne That Fits Your Daily Needs
Hilda Care is a registered NDIS home care provider in Melbourne. We help participants get reliable in-home disability support that suits their routines, goals, and lifestyle. Our experienced support workers offer personal care, help with household tasks, daily support, and overnight assistance.
What Does NDIS Home Care Cover?
NDIS home care supports people who need help with daily activities at home. This support is usually funded through the Core Supports budget in your NDIS plan and is different from therapy or skill-building services.
The support you receive depends on your disability, goals, and NDIS funding. Some people need help just a few hours a week, while others need more regular support. NDIS home care can include:
- Personal care such as showering, dressing, and grooming
- Meal preparation and grocery shopping
- Household tasks such as cleaning and laundry
- Medication reminders
- Support with appointments and community activities
- Overnight support when included in the participant’s plan
Who Can Access NDIS Home Care?
NDIS home care is for people with a permanent and significant disability who meet NDIS eligibility and have funding for home support in their plan. This support can help people living with disabilities such as:
- Autism
- Intellectual disability
- Psychosocial disability
- Acquired brain injury
- Cerebral palsy
- Multiple sclerosis
- Spinal cord injury
- Other physical or neurological disabilities
The amount and type of support you get depends on what is approved in your NDIS plan.

How Much Does NDIS Home Care Cost?

Most people use their NDIS funding to pay for approved home care services. Providers follow the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits.
Examples of support levels may include:
- Occasional support: Help with household tasks, shopping, or personal care each week.
- Regular support: Ongoing assistance with daily routines and personal activities.
- Higher support needs: More frequent assistance, including overnight support where approved.
Your NDIS funding may cover:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I choose my own home care support worker under the NDIS?
Yes. NDIS participants can choose their provider and have a say in who supports them. We work with participants to match them with a support worker based on their preferences, routine, communication needs, and support requirements.
Can I change my current NDIS home care provider?
Yes. NDIS participants have the right to choose their provider and can change providers if their current support is not meeting their needs.
Does NDIS home care funding reduce what is available for therapies?
No. NDIS home care support and therapy services are funded through different parts of an NDIS plan. Accessing home care support does not automatically reduce funding available for therapies or skill-building supports.
How do I know if my NDIS plan includes home care funding?
You can check your plan under the Core Supports section, especially the Assistance with Daily Life category. If you are unsure what funding is available, we can help explain your options.
How quickly can NDIS home care support start?
Support start times depend on your needs, available funding, and worker availability. Our team will work with you to arrange suitable support as soon as possible.
What happens during the first NDIS home care visit?
During the first visit, your support worker will learn about your routine, preferences, goals, and the type of assistance you need. This helps create a comfortable support arrangement from the beginning.
