Customer Questions about the NDIS
The NDIS provides all people with disability with information and connections to services in their communities such as doctors, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries and schools, as well as information about what Government supports are available.
Under the NDIS, you will have a plan that is tailored to your goals, circumstances and disability support needs.
The NDIS aims to support Australian families and carers with the endeavour to support the daily life and functioning of people with additional needs, such as autism, ADHD, hearing impairments, physical and intellectual disabilities.
To determine what disability supports you might need, the NDIA will work with you and your family to develop a plan of tailored disability supports to help you achieve your goals.
They will ask what you hope to achieve in life and talk to you about the supports that will help you get there. This could include your existing supports if they are meeting your needs and goals, such as assistive products for personal care and safety and assistive equipment for recreation.
As your needs change over time, the funding plan can be adjusted to change with you.
To be funded, these supports must:
- be related to your disability
- be likely to be effective and beneficial
- not include everyday living costs not related to your disability support needs
- take into account informal supports provided by families, carers, networks or the community
- represent value for money.
- Personal care and safety - such as our inflatable Peapod, padded sensory playmats and the soft rebound Mellow Mat. We have found the mellow mat especially useful for NDIS clients with autism and physical disabilities.
- Assistive products for recreation - such as our Gymnic Physio Roll Peanut and Climbing equipment such as our Pikler Triangles, slides and scramble nets which help develop the gross motor skills of children with autism and ADHD.
-Consumables and core supports, such as our wide range of fidget toys and educational tools to assist autistic children in the classroom.
The Sensory Specialist is a registered NDIS provider. You can make a claim using self managed, plan managed or NDIA managed accounts.
