NDIS
NDIS Providers Gold Coast
Applying to join the NDIS is the first step in your journey to accessing supports. Here’s some key information to help you understand how the NDIS works.
-
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a vital initiative that enables people living with a disability to access essential support across all Australian states and territories. As one of the leading NDIS providers on the Gold Coast, we understand the importance of giving individuals choice and control over their support. The NDIS is designed to assist with daily living tasks, enhance skills, and foster independence.
-
The NDIS offers a wide range of support options, including:
Accommodation options
Daily personal activities
Getting out and about in the community
Transport to community groups and daily life activities
Employment and workplace assistance
Therapeutic supports, including early intervention
Household tasks
Home and vehicle modifications
Mobility equipment
While the NDIS doesn’t fund general health or education services, it can help you access or support you while using any community services available.
-
Anyone who meets the eligibility criteria can access the NDIS. To check your eligibility, you can use the NDIS’s eligibility checklist.
-
If you’re eligible and your Access Request is approved, you’ll collaborate with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) to develop your NDIS plan. This plan outlines your individual goals and the funding allocated to help you achieve them. Once your NDIS plan is in place, you can start exploring various NDIS supports on the Gold Coast. If your plan includes ‘support coordination,’ a Support Coordinator can assist you in maximising the benefits of your NDIS plan.

-
Every NDIS plan is unique, tailored to your specific needs. The NDIA will ask questions about your lifestyle, goals, and the type of support required to create a personalised plan. Each year, you can review your plan with the NDIA to ensure you’re receiving the right support. If necessary, you can request a review sooner.
-
Your NDIS plan will detail your funding, the categories you have access to, and their purposes. We can help you navigate your plan and explain your options based on your available funding.
The NDIS plans consist of three support budgets:
Core Supports budget: for assistance with everyday tasks and activities, including community participation and transport.
Capacity Building Supports budget: for support aimed at fostering independence and skill development.
Capital Supports Budget: designated for one-off purchases, such as technology and home modifications, as well as Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). Capital Supports funds must be used for their specific purposes.
-
Isla Care charges in line with the NDIS Price Guide. Once you have your NDIS plan and understand which supports you’re funded for, we will work closely with you to find the right services that align with your funding.
-
The TTP applies to certain types of support received under the NDIS, such as assistance with daily personal activities. This payment is crucial for providers to continuously improve the quality of their services.
