Our Disability Support Services
What is NDIS?
National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is created to help and support millions of Australians who have a disability. The purpose of this scheme is to help people with disability to improve their skills and independence. NDIS is helping people with disability can be a physical, intellectual, sensory, cognitive, or psychosocial disability. NDIA (National Disability Insurance Agency) is providing funds to those who are qualified people with disability and children with developmental delays. If you are a person who needs this kind of support and you think you are qualified you can apply and be an NDIS participant. NDIA will decide whether you are qualified or not. If you are qualified and received an access decision letter you are now ready to create and use your plan.

National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Providers in Brisbane are providing support and services to all participants in Queensland. As of December 2021, there are 102,548 people in Queensland benefiting from the NDIS, they are called participants. Participants are people with permanent and significant disabilities. Every NDIS participant has an individual plan that lists their desired outcomes, the supports they will use, and their funding. The NDIS provides the necessary funding for them to access the supports and services they need to live and enjoy their lives.
NDIS service providers are an important part of the NDIS, they are the main contact points for participants. Providers are organizations, companies, or individuals who provide services and support to pursue the participant’s goal of living and enjoying life even with a disability. They can be registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission (NDIS Commission) or unregistered. The registered provider met the specific quality and safeguard requirements and was approved by NDIS.
The difference between the registered and unregistered is that registered providers have a wide range of services that can provide to the participants, including Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), Supported Independent Living (SIL), Plan Management, behavior support or behavior management plans, and supports that involve any restrictive practices. You can only acquire services from unregistered providers when you have a plan-managed or self-managed NDIS plan. However, you can only acquire services from registered NDIS providers when you have an agency-managed plan.
It is not required for all the NDIS service providers to be registered with the NDIS Commission. However, registered providers can assure the NDIS participants that they are giving quality and safety services based on the NDIS Practice Standards. The benefits of choosing a registered provider are that they are committed to providing quality standard services because they have been through a process of achieving the quality and safeguard requirements. The registered provider must follow the price caps set by the NDIA and the invoices are sent directly to your NDIS portal.

Australia currently has 43,000 children and young people living in Out of Home Care, unable to live with their parents for reasons of safety. The National Disability Insurance Agency estimates 18% of people live with disability, (abs.gov.au) while 20% of all people will experience some form of mental illness within a 12 month period. (SANE.org.au). In addition, we as a nation, are getting older. Over 15% of all people living in Australia are aged 65 years and over, that’s 3.4 million people. Of those still living in their own homes, 70% enjoy good health – they are ageing ‘well’ – and the other 30% require some form of home support. (AIHW.gov.au) as a national provider of social services, all changes in Australia’s demographic profile requires us to review our services and models of support. However, our approach of putting people first never changes.
