What is support coordination?
Support coordination is designed to help you to build capacity to use and manage your chosen supports under the NDIS.
At the outset, support coordination, or “coordination of supports”, helps empower you to understand and navigate your NDIS plan.
A support coordinator will explain your support budget and what it can be used for and detail how your funding budget is managed.
Once you understand your plan and how it works, support coordination can help you to map out and coordinate your supports and activities according to your needs.
This means identifying the right people to help you to achieve your goals, whether it is family members or outside services.
A support coordinator will assist you to connect with the right services and help to establish and maintain your supports, and will work with you to adjust this as your needs change.
With the help of a support coordinator, you will also be able to build your own capacity to manage your supports, allowing you to take greater control of achieving your goals and living more independently.
Importantly, a support coordinator can also help you and your support circle address unexpected events or challenges, such as going to hospital or moving house.
