NDIS

NDIS support through Lifecare's allied health services

The NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) provides funding to eligible people with disabilities, to support increased independence, skill development, access to paid and unpaid work, and achieve an improved quality of life.

Read more information on the NDIS website.

NDIS participants can access a range of allied health therapies under their NDIS plan to support them to increase their social and economic participation and independence.

All Lifecare clinics provide a range of NDIS allied health services to help to achieve your goals including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise physiology and podiatry for self-managed and plan managed participants.

Our in-home service in WA, along with the Ontrac clinic in Bowral, NSW are NDIS registered providers.

These clinics can service both plan- and agency-managed participants in those regions.

Services vary by location so check with your local clinic.

Our clinics adopt a person-centred approach putting individuals at the centre of decision making when it comes to planning, support and service agreements.
