What live-in care covers

Personal care, meals and household tasks during the day.

Overnight cover

Sleepovers or active nights, depending on your needs.

A small rotating team who know you well.

How it is funded

How the NDIS funds live-in care.

Where live-in care is needed because of your disability and is part of daily life, it is usually funded from your Core Supports budget using high intensity daily personal activity items, delivered by workers with the extra training these supports need. Nursing time to assess, write care plans and train workers can be funded from Core or from Capacity Building (Improved Daily Living).

Live-in care is built from standard support items (day shifts, sleepovers and active nights) rather than one live-in rate. We work with plan-managed and self-managed participants, and we do not guarantee funding outcomes.

2026-27 price limits (national, per hour)

Saturday, Sunday and public holiday rates are higher. We charge at or under the limit. See the price guide.

Questions

Live-in Care FAQs.

What is a live-in carer? +
A support worker who stays in your home, supporting you during the day and overnight, usually as part of a small rotating team.
Does the NDIS fund live-in care? +
It can, where round-the-clock support is reasonable and necessary. It is claimed as day shifts plus sleepovers or active nights.
How much does live-in care cost? +
It depends on the roster. In 2026-27 standard support is up to $73.58 an hour on weekday days and a sleepover is $311.79 a night.
Is live-in care the same as SIL? +
Not quite. SIL is support in a shared or individual home funded as a roster of care. See supported independent living.
