Household tasks means help with the jobs around the house that your disability makes hard to do. Cleaning. Washing and ironing. Changing the sheets. Cooking. Doing the shopping. We come on the same day each week or fortnight, so you always know when to expect us. You can have this on its own, or the same worker can do it while they are here helping with personal care.
What's included
- Cleaning floors, bathrooms, the kitchen and living areas
- Washing, ironing and changing the bed sheets
- Cooking meals, and making meals ahead to freeze
- Doing the shopping, with you or for you
- Taking the bins out and keeping things tidy
- Mowing the lawn, whipper snipping and edging
- Weeding, pruning and keeping the garden under control
- Taking away the green waste afterwards
Who it's for
People whose plan includes help around the house, and who want a reliable visit on the same day each week rather than chasing someone every time.
Questions about housework
Yes, when your disability is the reason you cannot do it yourself. It comes out of your Core Supports budget. It is not covered just because you would rather not do the housework, and it does not cover cleaning up after other adults living with you.
Yes, and most people prefer that. One person, one visit, someone you already know. It usually costs less from your plan than booking two separate visits.
