The Enhanced Lifestyles difference

At Enhanced Lifestyles, we’re a team of passionate individuals who believe in the importance of respectful, dignified, and holistic support.

We’re also not shy about our goal: we want to be the NDIS employer of choice that provides the highest quality of service to our customers while fully supporting our team’s growth. We believe that what’s good for our employees is good for our customers, so we’re focused on shaping our organisation to deliver life-enriching holistic support both to our customers and in the way we support our employees.

Over thirty years ago, a group of people living with disability realised that no one was better equipped to choose the kind of support they needed than themselves. Honing their knowledge and skills, together they became architects and builders of their own individualised disability services.

Today, Enhanced Lifestyles remains a member-governed not-for-profit, our Board predominantly comprised of people who use our services. By designing support services based on lived experience, we deliver the services people want to live life the way they choose.

Why we exist

Our history

How we support our community

You may be familiar with the term ‘disability support worker’ as common industry terminology. At Enhanced Lifestyles, we use the term Lifestyle Attendant to refer to our disability support worker and personal care providers. This is grounded in our customer-centred approach, reflecting the way our customers remain in control across their lifestyle choices.

Whether our customers are regularly active in their communities, busy at home, or prefer to change their routines on a daily basis, our Lifestyle Attendants are there to support them in a manner that’s based on their individual needs, goals, desires and preferences. Our Lifestyle Attendants achieve this through in-home or community support to individuals with disabilities, performing a variety of duties in these day-to-day support roles.

Our customers are all unique individuals, so we tailor our services in response to both their needs and their goals. We’re focused on keeping control in the hands of our customers, with the majority of our customer base opting to self-direct their service.
