Choice and Control
At Care in Disability Services, we support participants to exercise choice and control in the NDIS, empowering you to make decisions about your supports, providers, and daily life.
A key objective of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is to give you greater flexibility and independence when accessing disability supports. By understanding your options, you can take full control of your NDIS plan and achieve your personal goals with confidence.
What is Choice and Control in the NDIS?
Choice and control means you are at the centre of all decisions regarding your NDIS supports and services.
With the right support, you can:
-
Choose your preferred NDIS service providers
- Decide how your NDIS funding is managed
-
Control how, when, and where your supports are delivered
- Set and work towards your personal goals
At Care in Disability Services, we help you navigate your NDIS plan so you can make informed decisions that suit your lifestyle and needs.
Key Benefits of Choice and Control
Exercising choice and control allows you to:
- Maximise the value of your NDIS funding
- Access supports that align with your individual needs and goals
- Maintain independence and confidence in daily life
- Build meaningful relationships with trusted support workers
- Ensure your rights as an NDIS participant are respected
Why is choice and control important?
Having choice and control over your disability supports ensures that your services are tailored specifically to you.
With choice and control, you can:
- Select providers who best meet your expectations
- Change providers if your needs are not being met
- Decide how your supports are delivered and scheduled
- Maintain control over your personal information and decisions
- Receive services that are fair, transparent, and aligned with your goals
This approach promotes dignity, respect, and improved quality of life for NDIS participants.
