What Is The NDIS?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government program operated and overseen by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA). It provides funding to eligible individuals to support the cost of care, with money coming from general tax revenues.
The great thing about NDIS funding is that you can use it for nearly anything you feel would enhance your care and support your quality of life. The NDIA believes in equipping people to live purposeful, fulfilling and productive lives.
For instance, NDIS-registered providers in Sunshine, like HomeCaring, can help with:
- Finding vocational training and employment
- Supporting your well-being and ensuring your diet, exercise and stress levels are optimal
- Assisting with social event attendance and interactions with others in the community
- Helping you with your daily living needs, such as doing chores in the house or tending to the garden
- Facilitating the use of mobility equipment, such as hoists, walkers, and stair lifts
- Providing transportation to the grocery store, doctor’s clinic, or social events
- Helping you define how you want to organise your life and the goals you would like to achieve
Essentially, Sunshine NDIS providers like HomeCaring dedicate their time and energy to ensuring you can live the best life possible. Carers and support workers provide daily services to ensure you have everything you need to thrive despite disabilities.
Who Is Eligible For NDIS?
The NDIA requires you to meet various criteria to qualify for funding. You must:
- Be under the age of 65
- Have a permanent impairment that is likely to continue long-term
- Require care services
- Be an Australian citizen or resident
As an NDIS-registered provider, we can help you find out if you are eligible. We can also support your application to the NDIA, ensuring you provide them with the required information.
