Frequently Asked Questions

What is an NDIS service agreement?

An NDIS service agreement is a formal agreement between a participant and their provider that sets out the services to be provided, the cost of those services, how they will be monitored and reviewed, and any other relevant information. The agreement also states how disputes between the parties will be handled. It is important for both parties to understand and agree on the terms and conditions of the agreement before signing.

What are the benefits of respite care for a person living with a disability?

Respite care can give people with disabilities the opportunity to participate in activities they may not usually be able to. A respite care provider can also offer specialised activities tailored to the individual’s needs such as art classes or music lessons, as well as more structured outings like trips to a local park or museum. This can help the individual maintain mental and physical health, boost self-esteem and stay socially active.
