- Getting dressed and keeping clean
- Making food
- Managing money to pay household bills
- Cleaning and doing laundry
- Getting out and being a part of the community
- Helping people to get to medical and dental appointments or other health care services
HPC also includes support that improves a person’s ability to express their opinions and choices.
