Disability Support Services for Adults Living at Home

More adults with disability in the Hunter Region are choosing to live at home and receive support tailored to their needs, routines, and goals. Whether living independently or with family, EnableU provides professional in-home disability support that puts dignity, safety, and independence first.

Our services are designed for adults of all ages—from early adulthood through to seniors—with physical, cognitive, psychosocial, or sensory disability. With a team of skilled, qualified, and police-checked support workers, we deliver high-quality care directly to homes across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, and beyond.

What Is In-Home Disability Support?

In-home support means you receive assistance from a trained support worker in the comfort of your own home. These supports are funded by your NDIS plan (typically under Core Supports or Capacity-Building categories) and can be scheduled regularly or as needed.

Our services include:

• Daily personal care (showering, grooming, dressing)
• Meal preparation and light domestic support
• Medication prompting and supervision
• Support with mobility, transfers, and falls prevention
• Help with shopping, errands, and appointments

All care plans are created collaboratively with you (and your informal support network, if you like), ensuring your preferences, culture, routines, and goals shape the support we provide.

How In-Home Support Helps Adults Stay Independent

Adults with disability may not need round-the-clock care—but they often benefit from having consistent support in place for routine tasks or activities. EnableU helps you:

• Maintain personal hygiene with dignity
• Follow health and medication routines
• Stay safe at home through mobility and OT-recommended equipment
• Prepare meals that meet dietary and health requirements
• Access the community and stay socially connected

Whether you live alone, with a partner, or with parents or roommates, our goal is to help you stay in control of your life and your space.

Who Can Receive In-Home Support?

We support adults with:

• Intellectual disability
• Autism spectrum disorder
• Acquired brain injury
• Cerebral palsy or neuromuscular conditions
• Spinal cord injury
• Psychosocial disability or mental health challenges

Services are always tailored—there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach. We can start small and scale as needed.

Flexible Scheduling, Local Knowledge

We understand that everyone’s schedule is different. EnableU offers:

• Morning, daytime, evening and weekend visits
• Short-term or ongoing supports
• Consistent worker matching
• Backup staff if your usual support worker is unavailable

Our support workers live locally and know the region. They understand local services, transport, medical facilities, and community options—so you benefit from a team that gets your context.
