What Is The NDIS?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (also called the NDIS) is the new way of providing disability support.

The NDIS is designed to provide all Australians under the age of 65, who have a permanent and significant disability, with the reasonable and necessary supports they need to enjoy an ordinary life.

The NDIS is designed to help people with a disability achieve their goals. This may include greater independence, community involvement, employment and improved wellbeing.

As an insurance scheme, the NDIS takes a lifetime approach, investing in people with disability early to improve their outcomes later in life.

The NDIS also provides people with disability, their family and carers, with information and referrals to existing support services in the community.

By 2019, the NDIS will support about 460,000 Australians with disability.

My experience so far with The Disability Company has been good and stress free. My Son has been receiving support from them for over 1 year and there have only been a couple of days when we have received a support worker that I was not happy with as they were not suitable for my Son. As soon as I communicated with the Admin staff about my thoughts of these support workers, they quickly resolved the issue. I feel we have been well looked after by The Disability Company

The Disability Company are there for the right reasons, to make a difference to everyday people. Dylan, Sariah, Bek and Cassie do a fantastic job behind the scenes, as parents we do not always know what goes into organising the care for our children. Our carers are amazing. It just goes to show that if you work as a team together it can be very rewarding for everyone.

Our support worker was recommended to us via Bek after she moved into the office role. Bek’s knowledge and care of my Son and our family shows in her suggestion of our new support worker. Our new support worker is fantastic with our Son; He loves his Saturdays. It’s fantastic for us to see him happy and know he is cared for when away from us. Thank you.

Over the last 2 years that I have used this service provider, they have shown me that they are very reliable and give me peace of mind knowing they won’t let me down.

On the whole I have been very impressed with both the management and support workers from The Disability Co. We have three support workers and they are very enthusiastic, friendly and capable. My Son looks forward to their company in the afternoons and it gives him the opportunity to engage in a wider range of activities when we are not home to support him. The management is very efficient and professional but also understanding and friendly. Thank you.

Myself and my family are very pleased with the service of The Disability Company. The carers that work with my Son are doing a good service and he really enjoys their company. We cannot fault this service. Thanks a lot.
