Personal Care FAQs

Personal care is hands-on support with daily living tasks such as showering, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility assistance. Kanda’s trained support workers provide respectful, person-centred care to help you maintain dignity, independence, and routines at home. Care plans are individualised to your preferences and routines, focusing on dignity and comfort. Other supports can be combined with personal care for a more complete plan.

You might need personal care at home if daily tasks like bathing, dressing, toileting, or mobility are becoming harder to manage safely on your own. Kanda’s team can help assess your needs and tailor supports so you stay comfortable and confident in your home environment. A discussion with Kanda can help clarify what support is right for you. Reach out to us here.

The frequency of personal care depends on your needs, goals, and funding. Some people choose daily visits, while others prefer support several times a week or fortnightly. Kanda works with you to create a schedule that fits your routine and budget.

Personal care focuses on supporting your personal hygiene and physical needs like showering and toileting. Domestic assistance helps with everyday household tasks like cleaning, laundry, and bed making. Many people benefit from both.

Kanda offers multiple funding options for personal care, including Support at Home, Home Care Packages, Veterans’ Home Care, Transition Care, Short-Term Restorative Care, and private funding. Kanda can help explain which pathway is right for you and guide you through eligibility and next steps.

Yes. Personal care can be part of a joined-up support plan with other services such as community nursing, allied health, in home respite, and social support. This coordinated approach means your care team works together to support your overall wellbeing.

Getting started is easy. You can contact Kanda by phone or online to discuss your care needs, preferences, and funding options. If you are a family member or health professional making a referral, Kanda also accepts referrals and will help you through the next steps.

The people from Kanda (previously Programmed Care) were unbelievably wonderful. They treated us with respect, as individuals who really mattered. We never felt rushed. They always had time to listen. I have total confidence in recommending the organisation and every individual we met.
