NDIS Support Coordination
Level 1: Support Connection
Is the entry-level Support Coordination service. This level of support is designed to help individuals with disabilities connect with the services and resources they need to live independently. Support Connection typically involves assistance with navigating the service system, identifying appropriate services, and connecting with service providers. It is also designed to help individuals understand their rights and responsibilities and to help them understand the service system as a whole.
Level 2- Support Coordination
Is a more comprehensive service that provides individuals with disabilities with a higher level of support. This level of support is typically provided to individuals who require additional assistance to access and coordinate the services they need to live independently. Support Coordinators at this level work with individuals to develop a support plan, connect them with appropriate services, and provide ongoing
assistance. This can be but not limited to assisting with the referral process for occupational therapy, physiotherapy, allied health services, reviews to obtain adequate funding.
Level 3: Specialist Support Coordination
Is the highest level of Support Coordination. This level of support is designed for individuals with disabilities who require specialised assistance and support to access and coordinate services. Specialist Support Coordinators have specialised training and expertise in a particular area of need, such as mental health, housing, or complex support needs. They work with individuals to develop a comprehensive support plan and connect them with the services and resources they need to live independently.
In conclusion, the three levels of Support Coordination are designed to provide individuals with disabilities with the support they need to live fulfilling lives. Whether you require assistance with connecting to services, developing a support plan, or accessing specialised services, there is a Support Coordination level that can meet your needs.
