Support built around the person

Good individual support should feel personal rather than generic. We look at the type of support you want, the level of assistance required, your interests, communication preferences, personality fit and practical availability when arranging a worker.

Depending on your goals, individual support can connect with community access, daily living assistance, skill development and social and community participation.

Local individual support

We provide individual disability support across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Cessnock and the Hunter Valley, and Raymond Terrace.

Getting started

Tell us what support you are looking for, where you are located, the days or times that suit you and what a good worker match looks like. We can then discuss availability and whether Altitude is a suitable fit.
