Support Coordination
As part of your NDIS plan, you may receive funding for a Support Coordinator.
What is support coordination?
Once you have a NDIS plan you can choose who your service providers are. This can be stressful and hard to coordinate yourself. At Care to Change we have professional Support Coordinators who are able to assist you with connecting with service providers and allied health professionals that will meet your needs.
How does Support Coordination become part of my NDIS Plan?
In addition to the support provided by family, friends, and other community and government services, your funding will be determined by what is ‘reasonable and necessary to work on and reach your goals.
Budgets for capacity building will include support coordination where it is reasonable and necessary. To use your plan, you must pay a fixed amount for a support coordinator.
Your plan will describe the level of support coordination that is funded, and you can only purchase this level of support coordination.
What can my Support Coordinator help me with?
Support Coordinators can connect you with different services that you need in order to work towards or meet your NDIS Goals. They also assist you with:
