NDIS FAQs

1. NDIS Disability Services

The NDIS provides a wide range of supports tailored to individual needs, including but not limited to assistance with daily activities, community participation, early intervention, supported employment, housing, mobility equipment, therapies, and specialist disability accommodation.

Funding under the NDIS is managed through individualised plans developed in consultation with participants, focusing on their goals, needs, and preferences. Participants can choose how they manage their funding, whether through self-management, plan management, or having the NDIA manage it on their behalf.

Support coordination is a service offered under the NDIS to help participants navigate and implement their plans effectively. Support coordinators assist in finding and connecting with service providers, coordinating supports, and advocating for the participant's needs.

Yes, NDIS plans are reviewed regularly, usually annually, to ensure they continue to meet the participant's needs and goals. If your circumstances change or you're not satisfied with your plan, you can request a review to make adjustments or seek additional supports.

While there may be costs associated with certain supports, such as co-payments or contributions for specific services, the NDIS aims to minimise financial barriers for participants. The scheme covers the majority of approved supports outlined in individualised plans.

Family members and carers of NDIS participants can receive support through funded supports in the participant's plan if it's deemed necessary to assist the participant with their disability-related needs. This could include respite care, counselling, or training to better support the participant.

If you move to a different area within Australia, your NDIS plan and supports can generally be transferred to the new location. It's important to notify the NDIA of your change in circumstances as soon as possible to ensure continuity of supports and services.

2. Accommodation options for the NDIS

SIL refers to assistance provided to individuals with disabilities to help them live independently in a shared or individual living arrangement. This support can include assistance with daily tasks, personal care, household chores, and accessing community activities.

SDA refers to purpose-built housing designed to meet the needs of individuals with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. It includes features such as wheelchair accessibility, specialised equipment, and modifications to support independent living.

STA provides temporary accommodation and support for individuals with disabilities when their usual caregivers are unavailable or when they need additional assistance due to specific circumstances such as family emergencies or planned breaks.

MTA offers accommodation and support for individuals with disabilities for a longer duration than short-term stays but shorter than permanent arrangements. It caters to situations where individuals may require support for a limited period due to transitional phases or other temporary needs.

ILO encompasses a range of flexible support options tailored to meet the specific needs and preferences of individuals with disabilities. It allows individuals to choose their living arrangements, support services, and lifestyle goals, promoting greater independence and autonomy.
