SUPPORT COORDINATION

ENHANCING
YOUR
LIFE
What is Support Coordination?
Depending on your individual goals and NDIS plan, you may receive funding for a Support Coordinator.
daar’s Support Coordination is a service that involves collaborating with you to assist with ensuring your supports are used to build your capacity to maintain relationships, live more independently, exercise choice and control, and be included in the community.
There are three different levels of Support Coordination that can be funded in your plan that daar can provide:
1
Level 1: Support Connection – This level of support assists participants to understand aspects of their NDIS plan and build their ability to connect with providers and informal, community or funded supports.
2
Level 2: Coordination of Supports – This medium level of support assists participants to strengthen their ability to understand and use their NDIS plan effectively, and design and build their supports. It involves working together to understand the funding, expectations from services, resolve points of crisis, and ensuring supports are used to increase capacity to maintain relationships, manage service delivery tasks, and ultimately live more independently and be included in the community.
3
Level 3: Specialist Support Coordination – This is a higher level of Support Coordination, it is for participants whose situations or support environments are more complex with specific high-level risks. This support helps manage challenges in the participant’s support environment so they can access and connect with appropriate NDIS supports.
