NDIS registration group 0104: High intensity daily personal activities

Written by James, creator of Bluetail·Published 8 October 2026

Complex/high-needs personal care - e.g. ventilation, PEG feeding, complex wound or bowel care. Here's what group 0104 covers, who registers for it, the 23 support items funded under it, the groups it's often confused with, and the audit it needs.

What 0104 covers

Personal care and community participation for participants with complex support needs that call for high-intensity support, such as complex bowel care, enteral (tube) feeding, tracheostomy care, ventilation or severe dysphagia. The catalogue funds both high-intensity self-care and high-intensity community and group activities under this group.

The NDIS Support Catalogue 2026-27 lists 23 support items under 0104, funded from Assistance with Social, Economic and Community Participation, Assistance with Daily Life budgets. Leaving out the time-of-day, rate-level and claim-type variants, the supports are:

• Specialised Home Based Assistance For A Child
• Assistance With Self-Care Activities
• Access Community Social and Rec Activ
• Group Activities

Who registers for 0104

Providers and support workers delivering complex, high-intensity personal care, often alongside nursing staff.

Groups 0104 is often confused with

• 0107 Assistance with daily personal activities is standard personal care. You need 0104 when the care itself is high intensity.
• 0114 Community nursing care is nursing care delivered by enrolled or registered nurses.

Audit: verification or certification?

0104 is a certification group. You are audited against the NDIS Practice Standards Core Module, plus the High Intensity Daily Personal Activities Module, in two stages, with an onsite visit, interviews with workers and participants, and a mid-term audit. Your audit type is set by the highest of your groups, so registering for 0104 makes your whole registration a certification audit. See verification vs certification audits, how the NDIS audit works and what a certification audit costs.

If you use regulated restrictive practices, or carry out a behaviour support plan that includes them, you must be registered and you are also assessed against the Implementing Behaviour Support Plans Module. Our guide to Module 2A explains what that involves.

Groups often registered alongside 0104

• 0107 Assistance with daily personal activities (certification)
• 0125 Participation in community, social and civic activities (certification)
• 0114 Community nursing care (verification)
• 0138 Assistance with supported independent living (certification)

Only register for the groups you actually deliver: every extra group adds to what the auditor checks. Our guide to choosing your NDIS registration groups walks through it.

Documents you need for 0104

A certification audit checks your policies, procedures and records against the Core Module: participant rights, governance and operational management, how you deliver supports, and the environment you deliver them in. The auditor then looks for evidence you follow them, through your records and interviews.

If you help participants with medication or mealtimes, you also need medication and mealtime management policies and records.
