The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is an Australian government program that provides support and services to individuals with disabilities. It aims to help people with disabilities achieve their goals, increase their independence, and participate fully in society. The NDIS provides funding for a wide range of supports, including personal care, therapy, assistive technology, and community participation. It is designed to be person-centered, allowing individuals to have choice and control over the supports they receive.
An NDIS plan includes details about your goals, the supports you are eligible for, the budget allocated for each support category, and how your plan will be managed.
Yes, the NDIS gives you the freedom to choose your own service providers, as long as they are registered with the National Disability Insurance Scheme or meet certain criteria.
