What Are NDIS Services?
NDIS Services provide a lifeline to people with disability, giving them access to essential support and promoting independence. This includes assistance with daily living tasks like cleaning or meal preparation, community participation, and accessibility improvements in the home and workplace.
A reputable provider will prioritise individual goals and offer flexible and personalised services. This is why it’s important to read reviews and ask recommendations before committing.
Personal care
NDIS personal care services are designed to help participants maintain their independence and live with dignity and comfort. They can assist with activities such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and eating to promote health and wellbeing.
Choosing an NDIS personal care provider is a big decision that requires careful research and consideration. The first step is to clearly outline your requirements during a planning session with your NDIS plan manager or support coordinator. Then, look for providers with the right qualifications and experience to meet your needs.
Closer Care’s personal care assistants are trained to provide empathetic assistance that respects the privacy and preferences of their clients. They also understand the impact that disability can have on emotions and strive to build strong relationships with participants. They foster social interaction by engaging participants in conversations, encouraging activities, and accompanying them on outings. This helps combat loneliness and isolation. They also manage hygiene, grooming, and medication management to enhance quality of life.
Therapy
NDIS services offer a range of therapies that can help participants live more independent lives. They can include physiotherapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and more. They also assist with emotional support and a listening ear.
These services can relieve pressures on families who shoulder the responsibility for caregiving. Many real-life stories highlight the impact that NDIS services have on participants’ health and well-being. They also allow them to develop social connections and a sense of independence.
NDIS service providers are required to adhere to the principle that their services and supports should be “Reasonable and Necessary”. This criterion ensures that the quality of support is at an optimal level. However, ensuring compliance can be difficult given the complexity and strict standards of the NDIS.
Support to manage your health
NDIS participants have access to supports that enable them to manage their health and wellbeing. These include support to help keep safe, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and connect with a network of supports.
NDIS planners can help participants understand what is available through their plan and recommend specific supports. They can also assess a participant’s situation and long-term aspirations to create a tailored support plan that aligns with their goals.
A good NDIS provider will be experienced and have a thorough understanding of the scheme’s intricacies. Look for a provider that offers comprehensive support, from planning through to direct service provision.
A good NDIS provider will offer flexible options and flexible payment arrangements to suit participants’ needs. They will also be transparent about their pricing and provide a range of reports to help participants manage their budget. They can also assist with managing plan management. This involves a different level of responsibility and can be an excellent way to reduce administrative burdens.
Support to find and keep a job
Work is a powerful way to build confidence, increase independence, and connect with others. The NDIS offers a range of support services to help participants find and keep jobs. These supports can be found under the Capacity Building category for Finding and Keeping a Job or the Community Participation section of your NDIS plan.
NDIS participants who are thinking about work can use their Capacity Building funding to get a job readiness assessment. This can prepare them for the transition from school to work by helping them find a job that suits their skills and interests.
NDIS participants can also choose to have their supports managed by an NDIS registered provider or self-manage their NDIS funds. The choice will depend on your preferences and the level of complexity involved in managing your support services. Efficient coordination with your support providers is key to ensuring the best outcomes.
