Disability Support Services
What are disability support services?
Disability services provide assistance to people with disabilities so that they can live independently and participate in the community. These services can include help with everyday tasks, personal care, transport, and access to education and employment.
How can I get funding for disability support services?
There are a number of ways to finance disability services. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program that provides financial assistance to people with disabilities.
You may also be eligible for government benefits such as the Disability Support Pension (DSP) or Carer Allowance. Private funding is another option that can be used to cover the cost of services not covered by government benefits.
Do I qualify for disability support?
To qualify for disability support, you must have a physical, intellectual, or psychiatric condition that limits your ability to participate in day programs and activities. You will also need to provide proof of your condition from a medical professional.
How can I apply for disability support?
If you think you may be eligible for disability support, the first step is to contact a support provider to discuss your needs. They will assess your eligibility and help you to develop a care plan.
An individual must have a severe disability as a consequence of permanent impairment (physical, intellectual, cognitive, neurological, visual, or psychosocial) in order to receive an NDIS plan and assistance.
Basic Home Care creates flexible support plan and provides excellent service.
