NDIS Cleaning Scope Worksheet

Start the worksheet or contact Smurfettes when the scope is ready.

This NDIS cleaning scope worksheet helps a participant or authorised contact prepare a clear indoor household-cleaning enquiry. Print the page or copy the headings into a document. The worksheet does not send or save information, decide whether NDIS funding can be used, or confirm a provider booking.

1. Record the purpose of the request

The indoor result that matters most: ______________________________________________

Who is completing this sheet: participant / nominee / other authorised contact / support person helping at the participant’s direction

Preferred way for the provider to reply: phone / email / another agreed method

Do not write portal passwords, bank details, full plan documents or unrelated medical information on this worksheet. If using a shared device or printer, keep the completed copy private.

2. Identify the service location and timing

Suburb and postcode for the first enquiry: __________________________________________

Exact address to provide privately when requesting the availability check: __________________

Dwelling or entry notes: house / unit / apartment / access desk / lift / stairs / other: __________

3. Choose the rooms in scope

Mark only the indoor areas that should be assessed:

Areas that must not be entered: __________________________________________________

4. Build the essential task order

Priority 1: room ____________________ task __________________________________________

Priority 2: room ____________________ task __________________________________________

Priority 3: room ____________________ task __________________________________________

________________________________________________________________________________

Participant-approved movement permissions:

________________________________________________________________________________

6. Flag requests that need assessment

Mark any item that should be mentioned to the provider but not assumed to be accepted:

Each marked request remains assessment-only until the provider confirms it in writing. This worksheet is not for gardening, yards, exterior work, maintenance, repairs, handyman work, personal care, transport, meal preparation, dishes, organising, decluttering, packing, moving items, clinical tasks, mould remediation, biohazard work or pest treatment.

7. Add access, product and household notes

Who is expected to supply products and equipment: __________________________________

Indoor route or mobility equipment that must remain clear: ______________________________

Person authorised to approve a change: ____________________________________________

8. Define any shared-household boundary

Participant’s private areas: ________________________________________________________

Agreed common areas and the participant-related portion to discuss:

________________________________________________________________________________

Other residents’ private work that is not part of this request:

________________________________________________________________________________

9. Note the payment pathway without adding financial secrets

Relevant funding management: [ ] self-managed   [ ] plan-managed   [ ] NDIA-managed   [ ] unsure

Person or organisation that should receive the quote: _________________________________

Invoice destination to confirm privately: ____________________________________________

Do not put portal credentials, bank information or private account identifiers on this page. The management choice affects payment and provider requirements, but it does not by itself make cleaning fundable.

10. Use the quote checklist

Use the separate NDIS cleaning quote guide for a detailed explanation of each check.

11. Review funding and consent separately

The NDIA says funding may only be used for NDIS supports that relate to disability and are in line with the participant’s plan. Cleaning can be a relevant household task in some plans, but this worksheet cannot establish eligibility. Check the plan and current rules, or ask the participant’s my NDIS contact, plan manager or support coordinator within their actual role.

Official information about NDIS supports and service agreements was reviewed on 4 September 2026.

Send only what the provider needs

Before sending the completed outline, make sure the participant has authorised the contact and remove unnecessary personal information. Smurfettes needs the exact address, indoor work requested, priorities, access notes, timing choices and billing pathway to assess an enquiry. It does not need an unrelated history.

Email info@smurfettescleaningservice.net or request a written response online. Task fit, current capacity and the final scope must be confirmed before a booking exists. For more explanation, read the task-list guide or return to the national NDIS cleaning guide.
