To determine your eligibility for NDIS support, you must be under 65 years of age, an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and have a permanent or significant disability that affects your daily life. Visit the official NDIS website or contact Grandsheffield for personalised guidance. Our team can help you understand the criteria, assess your needs, and support you through the application process, ensuring you access the right funding and services tailored to your unique situation and long-term care goals.
If you believe you’re eligible for NDIS support, there are several ways to apply based on what suits you best. You can contact our coordinator for guidance. We will help you download and email or mail the NDIS Access Request Form with supporting evidence, or request a copy by calling 1800 800 110. You may also visit an NDIS office to collect a printed form. As your local NDIS partner, we will follow up to review your application and supporting documents in detail.
Preparing for your NDIS planning meeting is an important step toward creating a support plan that truly meets your needs. At Grandsheffield, we guide you through identifying your immediate support requirements and your long-term goals. During the meeting, we ask questions about various aspects of your life to understand what’s working and where additional support is needed. The insights you share not only shape a tailored plan for you but also help improve our services. We may also speak with your family members for a fuller picture.
At Grandsheffield, we help you implement your NDIS plan with ease, offering clear guidance on understanding your plan’s budgets, categories, and support options.
Once your plan is approved, our expert team will walk you through who can assist in activating your plan, how to manage it effectively, and ensure that your supports remain flexible and aligned with your changing needs.
Whether your plan is self-managed, plan-managed, or NDIA-managed, we provide ongoing support and adjustments to help you achieve your personal goals confidently.
At Grandsheffield, we are committed to working closely with NDIS participants to create, review, and continually revise personalised support plans that evolve with your changing needs.
Our experienced team ensures your plan remains flexible and responsive, adapting services and goals as your circumstances grow or shift. By regularly assessing outcomes and preferences, we help you access the most effective supports, maximise your funding, and achieve your goals—ensuring your NDIS journey stays empowering, relevant, and centred around your individual well-being.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) assists people with disabilities by funding a wide range of services and support, including Independent Living Support, Assistive technology and equipment, Personal care and support, Home care, Community services, Support coordination, Assisted Accommodation, etc..
Understanding the scheme helps people with disability better control how they use their funds to improve their quality of life and access the services they need.
The NDIS scheme funds eligible persons, depending on their needs. The level of support funded depends on the NDIS plans developed with the person, their family, and their support network.
Four easy steps to start accessing the NDIS funding
Accessing NDIS funding involves four steps: Check eligibility, gather information, apply for support, and create a personalised plan with a planner to get the needed services.
✅ Check you eligibility for funding
✅ If eligible, apply for the NDIS support
✅ Create a plan if application is approved
✅ Manage you plan
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) finances various supports and services covering education, employment, social engagement, independence, housing, and health and wellness. To access the funding for your support or service, the application will need to be considered and meet the criteria of being reasonable and essential and:
✅ Must directly address the participant’s disability.
✅ Should exclude routine living expenses unrelated to disability support, like groceries.
✅ Ought to offer value in terms of expenditure.
✅ Must have a high probability of being effective and suitable for the participant.
✅ Should consider the assistance provided by other governmental services, families, caregivers, networks, and the community.
Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and fairness. Whether you’re accessing disability services, aged care, or support as a carer, it’s important to understand your rights and where to turn for help. Independent advocacy services ensure your voice is heard in decisions about your care, funding, and well-being. See useful resources link:
