What is NDIS garden maintenance?
Maintaining a garden can be a daunting task, especially if you've fallen behind on the seemingly never-ending upkeep. However, for those with disabilities or difficulties performing physical tasks, it can become downright impossible.
That's where NDIS garden maintenance services come in. With the help of professionals, you can ensure that your garden is regularly maintained by having assistance with daily services such as mowing, weeding, and trimming. In this blog, we'll explore what NDIS garden maintenance is, how it works, and how it can benefit you if you’re on the NDIS plan.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme
NDIS stands for National Disability Insurance Scheme, a government-funded initiative designed to offer financial assistance and resources to individuals with any significant and permanent disability. An NDIS service provider offers a range of home maintenance services, including minor garden maintenance or light gardening. These services are available to Australian citizens, permanent residents, and eligible visa holders who are NDIS participants and require assistance with tasks like weeding, mowing, or trimming.
NDIS garden maintenance can cover the following services:
Lawn maintenance & care
General landscaping services allows for the transformation of outdoor spaces into functional and visually appealing areas, which can significantly increase the overall value of the property.
Hedge trimming & pruning
Through regular hedge trimming and pruning, the health and longevity of plants are optimised, improving the aesthetic quality of outdoor spaces and potentially increasing security by clearing obstructed sightlines.
Landscaping
NDIS lawn mowing services are an integral part of comprehensive yard maintenance. Regular lawn mowing not only enhances the visual appeal of your outdoor space but also ensures a safe and functional garden environment.
The importance of NDIS gardening
A garden that hasn’t been correctly maintained can pose a health and safety risk over time. If weeds overgrow wheelchair access points, uneven turf affects mobility across lawn spaces, or branches and roots block walkways, these hazards could cause issues with independent living. Disability resources like NDIS garden maintenance can ensure that these issues won’t arise, and you can continue living within a safe environment.
NDIS gardening services don’t just maintain your garden, they also maintain your safety, independence, and comfort. Some of the benefits include:
Keeping you independent
NDIS gardening services enable NDIS participants to live in well-maintained spaces, enhancing not just the aesthetics but also the therapeutic value of their gardens. A well-kept garden serves as a calm, ordered environment, that helps add an attractive element to promote the value of one's living space.
Maintaining safety
One of the key aspects of home maintenance is ensuring a safe outdoor environment. An NDIS gardener works to remove potential hazards around your home, significantly reducing safety risks associated with an overgrown or unkempt garden.
Comfort and connection
For many residents, including those in Brisbane, gardens are not just about aesthetics but are spaces of comfort and community interaction. A well-maintained garden, ensured by NDIS gardeners, allows for ongoing engagement with neighbours and the wider community while guaranteeing safety and accessibility.
