Support coordination at a glance

Support coordination helps an NDIS participant understand and use their plan, connect with suitable services, and build the skills and relationships needed to manage supports more independently. The coordinator does not replace the participant’s decision-making and should explain choices, conflicts and fees clearly.

What support coordination may include

• Explaining plan budgets, service categories and practical next steps in accessible language.
• Researching provider options and helping the participant compare service fit, availability and terms.
• Coordinating communication among providers, family, nominees and mainstream services with consent.
• Preparing for reviews by organising information about goals, barriers and how current supports are working.
• Building the participant’s confidence to direct providers, solve problems and manage more of the plan over time.

What to compare before choosing

Use these support coordination-specific checks when you contact providers in Tennant Creek. Confirm each answer directly: a directory listing does not prove current capacity.

Registration and qualifications

Check that the provider, and the worker who will attend, hold the registration and qualifications the support requires.

Ask: Who will deliver my supports, and what registration and qualifications do they hold?

Worker screening and safeguards

Providers delivering NDIS supports are responsible for the screening of their workers and for how incidents and complaints are handled.

Ask: How do you screen your workers, and how do you handle incidents or complaints?

Availability and continuity

A directory listing does not prove current capacity. Ask about start dates, rostering and cover when a regular worker is unavailable.

Ask: When could you start, and what happens if my regular worker is away?

Pricing and funding

Rates and what is included can differ between providers. Ask for a written service agreement before supports begin.

Ask: What are your rates, what is included, and do you accept my funding type?
