Update October 2020:
To give you more flexibility with the way you use your funds throughout COVID-19, the NDIS have made it possible to use your Core budget to access Support Coordination. If you’ve used up your Support Coordination budget, or don’t have Support Coordination included in your plan at all, you can now use your Core funding to get expert assistance finding and connecting with service providers. This measure is in place until 28 February 2021.
What is Support Coordination?
Support Coordination helps you get the most out of your NDIS plan, so you can realise your potential and achieve your goals.
As your Support Coordinator, we will:
Find and connect
Work with you
Track and prepare
Advise and guide
Support Coordination can take the stress out of organising your supports. It is what the NDIS calls a ‘capacity building’ support – designed to give you the skills and confidence to handle this yourself in future.
How to choose a Support Coordinator?
You can get NDIS Support Coordination from many organisations, but there are big differences between them. Here’s some important points to look for when you’re making your decision:
- Independence – an organisation which doesn’t deliver direct disability supports themselves
- Network – someone who can give you a wide choice of service providers
- Local Knowledge – to help you make the right choices from the service providers in your area
- Strong Support – someone who is committed to working closely with you, understanding your needs, and responding to you quickly and professionally.
Our Support Coordinators at Plan Partners tick all these boxes. We have supported hundreds of people throughout Australia with getting the most out of their NDIS plan - and we would love to help you too. Contact our friendly team to discuss what we can do for you.
