What is the NDIS, and What It Means for You in Melbourne?
The NDIS funds supports for Australians under 65 living with permanent and significant disability, funding for things like personal care, therapy supports, home modifications, assistive technology and help building skills for greater independence.
Melbourne participants access these supports through registered providers like Prime 1 Care, alongside Local Area Coordination partners who help connect people to services in their area. Because Victoria’s disability sector spans such a wide geographic footprint, from the CBD through to Geelong and the Mornington Peninsula, having a provider who understands local service gaps and travel logistics genuinely matters. We’re registered with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission, so our staff, systems and service delivery are held to the Commission’s practice standards, not just our own internal policies.
