What to compare before choosing

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

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