Independent living and life skills development
Independent living skills are basic skills we need to do on a daily basis to live an independent life.
People living with disabilities occasionally need extra assistance to become more self-reliant. Some individuals may require training with life skills such as taking care of personal hygiene or maintaining cleanliness in the home. Other people with disabilities may need assistance for more complex duties such as managing money, paying bills and organising medical appointments.
A member of our Disability Support Team in Cessnock will work with you (or a person who helps care for you) one-on-one to talk about your personal goals and assess which daily living skills are needed to reach those goals. Each independent living skills plan is designed to meet the unique needs of individuals and could include:

- Nutrition
