Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology is proud to announce its registration as a National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provider for psychology and home nursing services. This development marks a significant milestone for our organisation and offers new opportunities for NDIS participants to access comprehensive, high-quality care. This article explores what this means for NDIS participants, the benefits of these services, and how to access them.
The NDIS is an Australian Government initiative designed to support individuals with disabilities. It provides funding for a range of services and supports to help participants achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. The scheme aims to promote independence, community involvement, and overall well-being.
To be eligible for the NDIS, individuals must meet specific criteria, including having a permanent and significant disability that affects their ability to take part in everyday activities. Participants work with NDIS planners to develop tailored plans that outline their goals and the supports they need.
As a registered NDIS provider, Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology offers comprehensive psychological services designed to support mental health and well-being.
These services include:
Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology also provides home nursing services to support participants' health and well-being in the comfort of their own homes. These services include:
NDIS participants can access Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology’s services through their NDIS plans. Participants need to ensure that their plans include funding for psychology and home nursing services. Participants can work with their NDIS planners to add these services if they are not already included.
Participants who self-manage their NDIS plans or use plan management services can directly engage Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology. Our team can assist with the necessary paperwork and coordination to ensure seamless access to services.
For NDIA-managed participants, the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) handles the funding and payment processes directly. This simplifies the process for participants by ensuring that payments are made directly to service providers, removing the need for participants to manage invoices or payments themselves.
Registered NDIS providers, like Calm ‘n’ Caring Psychology, meet strict quality and safety standards set by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. This ensures that participants receive high-quality, safe, and effective services.
For NDIA-managed participants, the NDIA directly manages all payments to registered providers. This means participants do not need to handle invoices or receipts, streamlining the process and reducing administrative burdens.
Registered providers offer a wide range of tailored services to meet the specific needs of NDIS participants, ensuring comprehensive and coordinated care.
NDIS participants can choose from a variety of registered providers, giving them access to a broader range of services and supports that are tailored to their specific needs.
The NDIS provides financial support for a wide range of services, reducing the financial burden on participants and their families.
Our NDIS session rate is over 20% cheaper than the recommended NDIS billing rate for psychology - $195 (vs $223 in VIC , NSW, ACT & QLD - $244 in WA, SA & TAS & NT recommended NDIS rate). Leaving participants with more funding for additional services (around 10 extra psychology sessions p/a).
