Understanding Core Supports in Your NDIS Plan

Introduction:

Navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) can be complex, but it's a crucial step towards gaining the support and services needed for a fulfilling life. As an NDIS registered and disability support service provider, Altruistic Care Services is committed to demystifying essential aspects of the NDIS. In this blog, we delve into the significance of NDIS Core Supports and shed light on how self-funded Community Care services from Altruistic Care Services can complement your NDIS plan.

Unlocking the Basics of NDIS Core Supports:

NDIS Core Supports form a foundational part of the NDIS plan, focusing on day-to-day activities and assistance needed to enable individuals with disabilities to participate in the community and live independently. These supports are divided into three categories:

1. Assistance with Daily Living (Core Supports): This includes support with everyday tasks like personal hygiene, meal preparation, and household chores. Altruistic Care Services offers comprehensive Assistance with Daily Living, ensuring that individuals receive the support they need to maintain their independence.
2. Transport (Core Supports): NDIS participants may allocate funding for transportation assistance, aiding them in accessing the community, attending appointments, and participating in social activities. Altruistic Care Services facilitates safe and reliable transportation services as part of our commitment to enhancing accessibility for our clients.
3. Consumables (Core Supports): Funding for consumables covers everyday items related to disability support, such as continence and hygiene products. Altruistic Care Services assists participants in managing and procuring these consumables, ensuring a seamless and stress-free process.

While NDIS Core Supports provide a valuable foundation, individuals may have additional needs that fall outside the NDIS funding scope. Altruistic Care Services acknowledges the diverse requirements of our clients and offers self-funded Community Care services that can be tailored to complement NDIS plans.
