What are Daily Personal Activities in the NDIS?

Last reviewed 1 July 2026 · 6 min read · By Sarah M., Support Coordinator
In short

Daily Personal Activities is the NDIS registration-group name (group 0107) for hands-on self-care support. It describes the same showering, toileting and grooming help you see in plans, delivered as either standard support or, where needs are more complex, high intensity support by appropriately skilled workers.

Why does this name appear on your plan?

Daily Personal Activities is the registration group the NDIS uses to classify providers and price items. When you read your plan or an invoice, you may see this label rather than the friendlier phrase “assistance with daily life” — they describe the same family of self-care supports.

Understanding the registration-group framing helps when you compare quotes, because providers must be registered in this group to deliver these supports to NDIA-managed participants.

Standard versus intense delivery

Daily Personal Activities is delivered along a spectrum. Standard support suits routine assistance such as a morning shower and dressing. As tasks become harder, longer or more frequent, the support intensifies and may require workers with additional training.

Standard personal activities

Routine self-care like bathing, toileting, grooming and dressing, delivered by support workers in your home or accommodation.

Higher-intensity personal activities

Support for complex needs such as full hoist transfers or behaviour support, requiring workers with extra skills and supervision.

How it is structured and claimed

Items in this group are billed by the hour and adjusted for evenings, weekends and public holidays. The NDIS publishes maximum prices for each line item, updated every 1 July, so the rate that applied last financial year may have changed.

Because this is a Core support, you generally have flexibility to use your funding across the day in the pattern that suits your routine, provided it stays reasonable and necessary.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

Is Daily Personal Activities the same as Assistance with Daily Life? +
Effectively yes. Daily Personal Activities is the formal registration-group name for the self-care supports commonly described as assistance with daily life on participant plans.
What does the registration group number mean? +
Group 0107 is the NDIS code that classifies providers delivering personal-activity supports. It is an administrative label and does not change what help you receive.
Who can deliver these supports? +
Support workers deliver most personal activities. Where needs are complex, providers must meet the NDIS Practice Standards High Intensity module and use workers with the right competencies.
Can I use unregistered providers? +
If your plan is self-managed or plan-managed, you can generally choose unregistered providers. NDIA-managed plans require registered providers for these supports.
How are evening and weekend rates handled? +
The price guide sets separate maximum rates for weekday daytime, evening, weekend and public-holiday hours. Check the current guide, as these maximums are updated annually on 1 July.
