Specialist Support Coordination

In cases where your situation is more complex, the NDIS may include Specialist Support Coordination in your plan. Specialist Support Coordination is a level of support that addresses the difficulties faced in the support environment that holds you back from effectively using your plan. This is provided by a specialist support coordinator who is affiliated with a medical, psychological, social services or related field.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Support Coordination and Specialist Support Coordination?

Both services are similar in terms of helping you understand how the NDIS system works and how to maximise the use of your plan. The only significant difference between the two is that Specialist Support Coordination is also tailored to address the barriers that hold you back from accessing, implementing or using your plan.

Is there a limit to using the Specialist Support Coordination in my plan?

Specialist Support Coordination is available until the difficulties of your situation in implementing and using your plan are properly addressed. Our goal as your specialist support coordinator is to reduce your need for support and help you take back control of your life so you can do future planning of needs and goals.

Will my specialist support coordinator handle all decisions for me?

Our job as your specialist support coordinator is to address all the complexities of accessing your NDIS plan to the best of our abilities but the decision on how or where to use your plan is always yours to take. This will allow you to live more independently.
