How does NDIS fund Disability Care?
The NDIS divides care funding into three main categories.
A person’s plan might have one, two, or all three depending on their needs.
- Core Supports (Everyday Help)
This is the most flexible budget and is designed for the care you need to get through your day.
- Personal Care: Assistance with showering, dressing, and hygiene.
- Domestic Assistance: Help with cleaning, laundry, and meal preparation.
- Consumables: Everyday items like continence pads or specialized feeding equipment.
- Capacity Building (Skill Building)
This budget isn’t for “doing things for you”; it’s for “teaching you how to do things.”
- Therapies: Funding for Occupational Therapy (OT), Physiotherapy, or Speech Pathology.
- Training: Learning to use public transport, social skills development, or finding a job.
- Support Coordination: Funding for a professional to help you organize and manage your care providers.
- Capital Supports (Major Investments)
This is the least flexible budget and is used for expensive, one-off purchases.
- Assistive Technology: Wheelchairs, modified vehicles, or communication devices.
- Home Modifications: Installing ramps, grab rails, or bathroom modifications
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between disability and NDIS?
Think of the NDIS as a budget for disability-related needs—like therapy or assistive tech—whereas the DSP is a regular income stream from Centrelink designed to pay for essentials like food and rent.
What disabilities are not covered by the NDIS?
This means you generally can’t use NDIS funding for things like fixing a broken bone, buying standard glasses, or paying for daily medications.
It’s intended to support your life with a disability, while the regular healthcare system handles your medical treatments and illness management.
