Support Coordination will play a critical role in ensuring that National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants are able to use their NDIS Plan to live a good life. This is especially the case for participants who are vulnerable and socially isolated – such as younger people in residential aged care – where Support Coordination will be a key determinant of whether younger people have the supports in place to leave aged care.
This document aims to:
- Outline relevant frameworks that assist people with disability to achieve their goals and build capacity
- Provide practitioners with an overview of how the support coordination function is designed within the NDIS
- Reflect on the development of the support market, including the types of providers in the market, the ideal skills base of support coordinators and market investments needed to support this emerging workforce
