Support coordination
Support Coordination is designed to support participants and families to get the best outcomes from their NDIS Plan.“When the NDIS came in we didn’t really know how to navigate it, the Support Coordination we’ve received from Sunnyfield has made our lives and Ben’s life a lot simpler.”
Sunnyfield’s Support Coordination team works in consultation with participants to optimise the usage of their NDIS funds by advising them about the flexibility within their plans and by connecting them to a range of service providers based on individual needs and goals.
Not every participant is eligible for Support Coordination, but participants can ask for it in their NDIS planning meetings.
