How to make the most of your NDIS plan
Getting the most out of your NDIS funding means understanding your plan, choosing the right supports and reviewing it regularly.
Your NDIS plan is a valuable resource — but many participants don't realise the full range of supports they can access.
Understand your funding categories NDIS plans are divided into three budget categories — Core Supports, Capacity Building Supports and Capital Supports. Understanding which category each support comes from helps you use your funding more effectively.
Set clear goals Your plan is built around your goals. The clearer your goals, the better your plan will be. Think about what independence, employment, social connection and health mean to you.
Review your plan regularly Your needs change over time and your plan should reflect that. If your circumstances change significantly, you can request an unscheduled review at any time.
Work with a support coordinator A support coordinator can help you understand your plan, find the right providers and make sure your funding is being used in the best way. This is exactly what Wei Community Care's Level 2 support coordination service does.
