Disability Support
What is an NDIS Plan?
An NDIS plan outlines your goals and aspirations, and what funding and supports you require to meet this. Everyone has their own unique NDIS plan – it is tailored to you and your preferences, wants, and needs.
Overall, your NDIS plan demonstrates:
- * Your goals and aspirations
- * The different types of funding (known as “support budgets”) under three different categories: core, capital & capacity building supports
- * A list of the services you can receive under this funding
- * Choice and control to select where to spend your funding
Am I eligible for NDIS?
The NDIS website is your best reference point for details on eligibility and additional information such as the process when applying for NDIS funding.
There are a few key criteria that must be met:
Are you aged between 7 and 65?
Do you live in Australia and have Australian residency?
Do you usually need support from a person because of a permanent and significant disability?
Do you use special equipment because of a permanent and significant disability?
Do you need some supports now to reduce your future needs?
Receiving Support Services
A Service Provider such as Just Better Care can assist you with a range of support services that relate to your NDIS funding.
Your Local Area Coordinator (LAC) can assist you in linking to service providers, and you have the power to choose which provider you prefer. Your plan does not dictate which provider you choose, you have that choice.
If you do decide to work with Just Better Care the process is easy, simply locate your nearest office and give them a call and they will work with you on getting started. You may also wish to involve a friend, family member or advocate in this process of meeting with service providers.
The role of the Support Coordinator
In addition there is also an option for "Support Coordination" that can assist you in navigating the system and find providers to suit your needs.
The role of the Support Coordinator is to assist you in finding service providers that are capable of providing the necessary supports. There are some Just Better Care locations that also provide Support Coordination.
