Understanding the National Disability Insurance Scheme
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is one of Australia’s most important support systems, designed to empower individuals living with disability. By funding essential services and supports, the NDIS helps participants live with independence, dignity, and choice. At Bharosa Community Services, we are proud to be a registered NDIS provider, supporting participants across Queensland and Tasmania with personalised care.
Who Is the NDIS For?
The NDIS is for individuals living with a permanent and significant disability that impacts their ability to participate fully in everyday life. It is available to children, young adults, and seniors who meet eligibility criteria.
What Does the NDIS Provide?
The NDIS funds a wide range of supports tailored to individual needs, including:
- Assistance with daily living activities
- Therapeutic supports such as physiotherapy and occupational therapy
- Mobility aids and equipment
- Home modifications for accessibility
- Social and community participation programs
- Employment support services
- Access to healthcare and allied health services
Participants work with the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) to develop a personalised plan that reflects their goals and aspirations.
