NDIS Service Provider
The National Disability Insurance Scheme is a scheme valid throughout Australia, founded by the Australian government to offer support, financial or otherwise, to people with disabilities of any kind, may it be intellectual, or physical in nature. While funded support is a key component of NDIS. Offering financial support is not the only goal of NDIS but through the various services covered by an NDIS plan like assistance with daily tasks, transportation, community nursing care, etc., it ensures their overall wellbeing.
NDIS prioritises the agency of the participants over anything, depending upon the choice of the participant themselves, the support extended could be as much or as little as possible.
And these services are meant not just to offer care but help the participants develop into self-reliant individuals who can lead an autonomous existence.
A fund would be allotted to every eligible participant and then they can use those funds to avail of the services that they need. Through the services offered, the participants would be given a chance to lead a safe existence and build capacity so that they can begin living the kind of independent life that they have always aspired for.
Goals for NDIS
Choice and control
The list of services that NDIS offers to all the participants is quite long, depending upon your needs and choice you or your family could choose the one that best meets your needs and expectations. At no point would the NDIS or your choice of service providers try to hinder your autonomy and you will always be the one in control of your plan. NDIS simply offers assistance and the degree of assistance provided would entirely be in control of the participants.
Advocacy
NDIS along with the care and support that it offers advocates the rights of all the participants and helps them speak up for themselves. There are times that we fail to decide on our choice in the absence of a strong support system. NDIS aims to eliminate this by standing up for your rights and helping you take forward the vision that you have in mind regarding your own life. This helps people lead a life of their choice, an independent one where they don’t have to sacrifice their selves and can lead an empowered and growth-oriented life without anything limiting their will.
NDIS provides free and confidential advocacy services to participants across different Australian states to ensure that their needs and desires are always heard and addressed.
