Whether support is provided at home, in the community, or through Supported Independent Living (SIL), our experienced team delivers flexible, person-centred support that promotes safety, builds confidence, and helps participants live as independently as possible while working towards their personal goals.

We provide Epilepsy support for people, families, and support networks, with flexible NDIS services that promote safety, independence, and confidence in everyday life.
People Living with Epilepsy
Living with Epilepsy can make everyday life feel unpredictable, especially when seizures affect daily routines, work, education, or community participation. We provide practical support that helps participants build confidence, maintain their independence, and continue working towards their personal goals.
People Needing Ongoing Daily Support
Some people living with Epilepsy require regular support to manage everyday tasks and reduce the impact seizures have on their daily lives. Our experienced Support Workers provide flexible assistance that adapts to each participant's needs while promoting safety, wellbeing, and independence.
People Wanting to Stay Active and Connected
Having Epilepsy shouldn't stop someone from enjoying work, study, hobbies, or spending time in the community. We support participants to attend appointments, participate in social and recreational activities, develop life skills, and continue doing the things that matter most.
Families and Carers
Supporting a loved one living with Epilepsy can bring ongoing concerns about safety, independence, and responding to seizures. We provide reliable support, clear communication, and respite opportunities so families can feel confident their loved one is receiving compassionate, consistent care.
Support Coordinators and Healthcare Professionals
Providing effective Epilepsy support requires a coordinated approach. We work closely with Support Coordinators, Neurologists, Epilepsy Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Allied Health Professionals, and broader care teams to deliver support that aligns with each participant's goals, health needs, and everyday routines.

What Does Our
Epilepsy Support Involve?
Personal Care
For some people living with Epilepsy, everyday tasks such as showering, dressing, meal preparation, or following daily routines may require extra support. Our Support Workers provide respectful assistance that promotes safety, dignity, and independence while adapting to each participant’s individual needs.
Household Tasks
Managing a home can become more challenging when seizures or recovery periods interrupt daily routines. We can assist with cleaning, laundry, shopping, meal preparation, and other household tasks to help participants maintain a safe, comfortable, and organised home.
Travel and Transport
Getting to medical appointments, work, study, or community activities should not become a barrier to independence. We provide safe and reliable transport that helps participants stay connected to healthcare, social opportunities, and the activities that are important to them.
Community Participation
Everyone deserves the opportunity to enjoy life beyond their home. We support participants to attend social outings, recreational activities, education, volunteering, and community events while building confidence and participating safely.
Daily Living Support
Living with Epilepsy often means balancing everyday responsibilities with changing support needs. We help participants establish routines, develop practical life skills, build confidence, and maintain their independence while working towards their personal goals.
Safety and
Routine Support
Consistent routines and the right support can make everyday life feel more manageable. Our experienced team works alongside participants to provide reliable, person-centred assistance that promotes wellbeing, supports daily routines, and helps them navigate life with greater confidence.
Coordination with Health Professionals
Many people living with Epilepsy receive support from Neurologists, Epilepsy Nurses, GPs, Occupational Therapists, Support Coordinators, Allied Health Professionals, and other members of their care team. We work closely with the wider support network to ensure support remains coordinated, consistent, and aligned with each participant’s goals and wellbeing.

Our experienced team provides consistent, person-centred support, clear communication, and flexible services that help participants live with greater confidence while giving families peace of mind.
Is Epilepsy covered by the NDIS?
People living with Epilepsy may be eligible for NDIS funding if their condition results in a permanent disability that significantly affects their ability to complete everyday activities. Eligibility is based on how the condition impacts daily life rather than the diagnosis alone.
Can people with Epilepsy live independently?
Yes. Many people living with Epilepsy live independently, particularly with the right combination of medical treatment, lifestyle strategies, and practical supports. The level of support needed varies depending on how Epilepsy affects each individual.
What are the different types of Epilepsy?
There are many different types of Epilepsy, with seizures generally classified as focal seizures, which begin in one area of the brain, or generalised seizures, which involve both sides of the brain from the start. Identifying the type of Epilepsy helps guide treatment and ongoing support.
Can people living with epilepsy access Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
Yes, if you have SIL funding in your NDIS plan and require support with daily living, you may be able to access Supported Independent Living. The level of support depends on your individual needs, goals, and the type of assistance you require to live as independently as possible.
What should I look for in an NDIS provider for epilepsy support?
It’s important to choose a provider that takes the time to understand your individual needs, routines, goals, and preferences. Many participants and families also look for experienced support workers, reliable communication, flexible services, and consistent support that can adapt as circumstances change.
