Getting the most out of your NDIS plan

Managing your NDIS plan effectively is essential to achieving your goals. The funding you receive is tailored to your disability, needs, and aspirations. Dominion Care Services is here to support you in navigating the process, ensuring your funding aligns with your individual requirements and objectives. Your NDIS plan may include three key funding categories: Core Supports, Capacity Building Supports, and Capital Supports. Dominion Care Services helps you understand and maximize these categories, empowering you to access the resources and services you need to lead a fulfilling and independent life. Let us guide you through every step of your NDIS journey.

Core Supports

This is the most flexible budget and includes your day-to-day living expenses, such as:

Capacity Building Supports

Funding is divided into eight sub-categories, giving you the flexibility to allocate funds toward any approved individual support within each category. It’s important to note that your funding is aligned with the specific goals outlined in your plan and cannot be transferred between categories. This ensures that the resources provided are tailored to help you achieve your outlined objectives effectively. By carefully selecting supports within your allocated categories, you can maximize the impact of your funding while staying aligned with your personalized care plan. Let us help you navigate these options to achieve your goals.

Capital Supports

This includes support such as assistive technology or home modifications, based on quotes provided by suppliers.
