When navigating the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), understanding the various categories of support services available is essential. At MI Health Care, an experienced NDIS service provider in Melbourne and Epping, we strive to make this process more manageable. Let’s delve into the three main support service categories of the NDIS.

1. Core Supports

Core supports make up a significant portion of NDIS plans and are designed to assist with everyday activities. This category is further divided into four sub-categories: Assistance with Daily Life, Transport, Consumables, and Assistance with Social and Community Participation.
From personal care to community involvement, core supports aim to ensure that individuals with disabilities can enjoy their everyday life as independently as possible. At MI Health Care, we have a dedicated team that is committed to providing these core support services.

2. Capital Supports

Capital Supports are intended to fund capital costs related to disability support, such as assistive technology and home or vehicle modifications. This category is divided into two sub-categories: Assistive Technology and Home Modifications.
Through this category, individuals can receive funding for items like wheelchairs, speech devices, or changes to their homes to improve accessibility. At MI Health Care, we can help guide you in navigating this complex part of your NDIS plan.

3. Capacity Building Supports

Capacity Building Supports are designed to build independence and skills. They include support for education, employment, community participation, health and wellbeing, living arrangements, relationships, and more.
Through personalized support, we at MI Health Care aim to help you build your capacity in the areas that matter most to you, aligning with the goals in your NDIS plan.
