Eligibility criteria for Support Coordination
Support Coordination is an intuitive NDIS support service plan designed to help build participants' confidence.

Being NDIS Support Coordinators, they are bound to thoroughly assess your needs and carefully match you with the best and relevant service providers best suited to your needs and help you reach your goals without trouble.
What is Support Coordination?
Support coordination is precisely the opposite of NDIS Plan Management service. In Plan Management, the service providers do all the necessary work on behalf of the participants.
But a support coordinator will only guide and support the NDIS participants and help them find the right NDIS service providers.
Here, irrespective of your NDIS status (Plan Managed or self-managed), you can access a support coordinator upon getting approval from the NDIS.
Work alongside your plan manager
One primary benefit that NDIS often highlights is that the support coordinator and plan manager can collaborate and work together to bring the best possible outcome for participants.
While one can take care of the paperwork and the entire plan management of your NDIS plan, the other team member can teach the most accurate and suitable way to execute all plans and support services.
Stable housing (accommodation) assurance
A roof over the head is what most humans crave, and when one suffers from any disability, then it becomes more than just a need.
While many NDIS participants require some time inside a home, few with serious condition requires 24*7 observation inside a room with an attached restroom and other facilities.
Fortunately, NDIS comprises Housing and accommodation services that provide suitable and stable homes to the needy NDIS participants.
What Support Coordinator can do is take care of this responsibility and help those participants receives all necessary help regarding accommodation.
Provide support to parents and friends
Disabled individuals seek NDIS help on three prospects - either they have enough support (friends or family members) and need only funding or vice versa and sometimes both.
However, NDIS officials stated that those with a great support system are blessed and can quickly achieve their goals successfully.
Support coordinators support parents, friends, and other family members who take care of the participants daily with every task.
The team ensures streamlined training so those caretakers can learn how to help their loved ones achieve their NDIS individual goals.
