Support Coordination & Activities of Daily Living: Empowering Your Independence.
At Shukran Services, we believe every person deserves to live with dignity, choice, and confidence. Two key areas that help NDIS participants achieve this are Support Coordination and assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).
In this guide, we’ll explain what these services mean, why they are important, and how Shukran can support you or your loved ones to lead a more independent life.
What Is Support Coordination?
Support coordination is about more than arranging services. It helps you:
- Understand and make the most of your NDIS plan
- Connect with the right providers and community supports
- Build your capacity to manage services independently
- Monitor your progress and adapt supports as your needs change
At Shukran, our support coordinators work closely with you to ensure your NDIS journey is clear, empowering, and stress-free.
What Are Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)?
Activities of Daily Living are the essential, everyday tasks that allow people to live safely and independently, including:
- Personal care (showering, dressing, grooming)
- Mobility and transfers
- Eating and meal preparation
- Toileting and continence care
- Taking medication as prescribed
There are also Instrumental ADLs (IADLs), such as shopping, cooking, cleaning, and managing household tasks. These may seem small, but they are vital for independence and quality of life.

- Tenancy Assistance – Guidance in maintaining stable and safe housing.
- Community Participation – Encouraging and supporting you to engage in social, cultural, or recreational activities.
Benefits of Combining Support Coordination & ADLs
When these services work hand-in-hand, participants experience:
- Greater independence and confidence
- Better health and safety through consistent routines
- Reduced stress for families and carers
- Improved community connection and social participation
- Clearer understanding of NDIS funding and support use
How to Choose the Right Provider
When looking for a provider to support you in these areas, consider:
- Do they take a person-centred approach, respecting your goals and preferences?
- Are staff trained, empathetic, and reliable?
- Do they provide clear, transparent communication about your plan and services?
- Are supports flexible and tailored to your lifestyle and culture?
At Shukran, we pride ourselves on building trust, offering consistent care, and always keeping your goals at the Centre of everything we do.
Support coordination and assistance with daily living are not just services they’re pathways to living a more fulfilling, independent life.
