The NDIS is a government initiative designed to provide targeted support and services to people with disability across Australia. It aims to give individuals greater choice and control over the support they receive. Learn More

Eligibility for the NDIS is based on age, residency, and disability requirements. You must be under 65 years of age, an Australian citizen or a holder of a permanent visa, and have a permanent and significant disability that affects your ability to take part in everyday activities. Learn More

Applying for NDIS support involves several key steps:

• Check Eligibility: Ensure you meet the age, residency, and disability requirements as outlined by the NDIS.
• Contact the NDIA: You can initiate your application by contacting the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). They can provide you with all the necessary forms and guidance.
• Prepare Your Information: Gather documentation regarding your disability and how it affects your daily life. This may include medical reports, assessments, and a personal statement.
• Plan Meeting: Once your eligibility is confirmed, you’ll have a planning meeting with an NDIA planner or a Local Area Coordinator to discuss your needs and goals.
• Receive Your Plan: After your meeting, you’ll receive your NDIS plan outlining the supports and funding you are eligible for. Learn More

The NDIS funds a variety of supports and services that are deemed reasonable and necessary to help participants reach their goals. These include personal care, mobility equipment, workplace help, and therapeutic supports. Importantly, the supports must relate to your disability and not include day-to-day expenses unrelated to your disability needs. Learn More

You can manage your NDIS funds in one of three ways: self-management, plan-management, or NDIA management. Self-management gives you the flexibility to choose your service providers and manage your budgets directly. Plan-management allows a registered plan manager to take care of the financial and administrative aspects of your plan. NDIA management involves the NDIA managing your funds and arranging services on your behalf.

You can search for registered NDIS providers on the NDIS website or ask for recommendations from community groups, healthcare providers, or directly from us. We offer a wide range of NDIS-approved services personalised to meet your needs and enhance your independence. Learn More

Your NDIS plan is typically reviewed annually to ensure that the supports remain relevant to your needs and goals. However, if your circumstances change significantly, you can request a review at any time.

Yes, the NDIS is designed to give you the freedom to choose your own service providers that best meet your needs and goals.

If there are significant changes in your disability or circumstances, you can request a plan review to ensure your supports and funding are still appropriate.
