NDIS support coordination

What is NDIS Support Coordination, and how can it help me?

NDIS support coordination is a vital service for people with disability. It can ensure NDIS participants to access all the support they are authorized to after their plan review and enable them to understand their NDIS scheme. With the help of a suitable support coordinator, one can quickly achieve the NDIS aspirations and invest less time in managing the support by themselves.

One of the main advantages of support coordination is that the support coordinator helps you to find the right providers of your choice, get the ultimate required services and support tailored to personalized needs. They can also connect you with the right support services when needed, including legal assistance, and provide information about various local community services and other activities.

NDIS Support Coordination Explained…

The one thing that is constant when it comes to life stages, or transition, is the idea of change. For the ageing population or for those living with disabilities, changes can often seem like a daunting and overwhelming experience. Especially, if they have to navigate this change without assistance.

Changes can include a medical diagnosis, life stages, retirement or relocation. At Compass Care Group, we acknowledge that every participant deserves to be supported during their moments of change. Hence, our goal is to help our participants receive support in dealing with such life changing adjustments.

As an NDIS registered support coordination services providers, we can help eligible NDIS participants transition smoothly through life stages by mentoring them to gain appropriate skills to deal with such changes.

Support coordination is an essential segment of the NDIS, and it enables the participants of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to live a fulfilled life by assisting them in understanding the most promising of their NDIS support plan and how to utilise it for their growth and development.

They help the participant with their expertise to understand the importance of the NDIS plan and assist in various aspects related to the plan.
