We welcome Simply Helping as a Specialist Expo Partner of the Perth Disability Connection Expo 2024.

From its humble beginnings as an in home care and support service provider in regional Victoria in 1998 to branching across Australia today, National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)-registered provider Simply Helping delivers quality in-home care to hundreds of Australians.

Whether your requirements are short term, or you need more complex long term assistance, Simply Helping offers a wide range of flexible, personalised in-home care including aged care, disability care, home help, personal care, transport, social support, pet sitting & dog walking, gardening and more.

Through the NDIS, Simply Helping has enabled many people to achieve even better outcomes, including around Perth.

With Western Australia joining the NDIS, Simply Helping Lower North Perth was able to fully embrace all that the NDIS has to offer.

This, coupled with understanding the diverse needs of individuals living with a disability, allows the team to provide flexible, tailored in-home care that you want.

Simply Helping services have just about everything you can think of covered! From help with social participation and daily living to health and well-being. Read a little about their services here, but contact your nearest franchise to see what’s available in your area:

Aged Care

Simply Helping supports your decisions about your care options and the way they are delivered so you can continue to experience the safety and familiar surroundings of your home and spend more quality time with your loved ones while we look after the day-to-day requirements.

Disability Care

Recognising that everyone is different, has different needs and goals, and that everyone lives their life differently has led Simply Helping to adopt a flexible approach. Its disability in-home care and services are tailored to meet your specific needs. This helps the team to match you with the most compatible carer or support worker who can help maximise your opportunities and potential.

Social Support

Simply Helping understands the importance of social support and regular companionship. By matching you with one of our friendly carers, based on your interests and preferences, you will be in good hands. Enjoy interesting visits and conversation on days and times that suit you. Often, the confidence gained from regular in-home visits will lead to other activities, such as:

• A trip to the movies

Respite Care

Caring for a loved one 24/7 can be physically and emotionally exhausting. It can also be difficult to keep up with your own commitments while you are focused on providing the best care you can. Even the most dedicated carers need a break sometimes to avoid burning out. By taking some time to care for yourself, you can continue to take great care of your loved one, too.

Whether you need a short break to recharge your batteries, more regular support, or that short holiday you have been putting off, in-home respite care offers a great solution.
