Assistance With Self-Care Activities in a STA - Weekday Daytime

Line Item Description

The NDIS line item 01_200_0115_1_1 Assistance With Self-Care Activities in a Short Term Accommodation (STA) - Weekday Daytime is designated to fund direct support for a participant's daily personal activities while they are enjoying a break at a Short Term Accommodation and Assistance (STA) facility.

This Core Support item, categorized under Assistance with Daily Life (01), ensures that participants maintain their personal routines comfortably and safely while away from their usual home environment. STA support is a valuable opportunity for a change of scene, building capacity, and providing respite for a participant's informal support network.

Core Supports Covered
This funding encompasses necessary assistance with fundamental personal care and self-care tasks, including:

Personal Hygiene: Support with showering, bathing, grooming (hair care, oral hygiene), and general cleanliness.

Dressing and Grooming: Assistance with getting dressed, undressed, and managing personal appearance.

Toileting and Continence: Support with using the toilet, managing continence aids, and maintaining dignity.

Mealtime Assistance: Help with preparing meals and/or assisting with eating and drinking.

Medication Prompts: Reminders and non-complex assistance to take prescribed medications (as per a participant’s support plan).

Mobility: Support with moving around the Short Term Accommodation facility.

Context and Timing
This specific line item is strictly for supports delivered within the scope of an NDIS-approved Short Term Accommodation and Assistance (STA) booking.

The support is claimed for services provided during Weekday Daytime hours. This period is defined as standard hours between Monday and Friday, typically from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm. The use of this code ensures the appropriate level of support is funded for standard care needs during regular waking hours of the week. Supports required outside of these hours (e.g., Weekday Evening, Saturday, Sunday) would be claimed under different line items.
