About Us
About NDIS
The NDIS takes a lifetime approach, investing early in people with disability and children with developmental delay to improve their outcomes later in life.
The NDIS provides funding to eligible people with disability to gain more time with family and friends, greater independence, access to new skills, jobs, or volunteering in their community, and an improved quality of life.
The NDIS also connects anyone with disability to services in their community.
This includes connections to doctors, community groups, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries and schools, as well as providing information about what support is provided by each state and territory government.
Why To Choose NDIS provider?
NDIS Quality Safeguards
Registered providers must meet the NDIS Practice Standards. NDIS providers must adhere to the NDIS Code of Conduct when delivering support to an NDIS participant.
NDIS Plan Managment
NDIS some times can be overwhelming to participants and very complicated. Finding. a provider to handle your NDIS plan will free you up to just worry about achieving your goals
Don't Miss On Your Rights
NDIS providers have a great understanding of participant’s needs and can be an advocate to make sure each NDIS participant receives the right fund for their needs

The NDIS is for eligible Australians who were either born with or acquire a permanent and significant disability. A ‘permanent disability’ means a person’s disability is likely to be lifelong. A ‘significant disability’ means a disability with a large impact on a person’s ability to complete everyday activities.

The Code of Conduct requires workers and providers who deliver NDIS supports to:

Testimonial
What our Clients say
Ozzi Care Services was initially recommended to me 12 months ago for their experienced, individualised and nurturing approach. I was assigned three support workers, each with different attributes and skill sets, which illustrated their ability to provide professional, diverse, well matched support workers.
The support I have received has enabled me to build social connections, feel less isolated and learn to talk about things other than my mental illness. Ozzi Care Services has assisted me to develop my confident and self-esteem, regulate my emotions, develop my communication skills and decrease my social isolation.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Ozzi care Services, we match participants with support workers. It is not about just support, but it is more about the relationship and trust. We choose our support workers based on our participant’s needs and comfort. We make sure that each support worker is the right choice for you.
Who is eligible for the NDIS ?
Eligibility for the NDIS depends on a few different things such as:
- Age: You need to be under 65 years at the time of your application
- Residency: You need to be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or a New Zealand citizen who holds a Protected Special Category Visa
- Disability: You must have a permanent disability that significantly affects how you can communicate, move, care for yourself, or manage your life.

What does the NDIS fund ?
With the NDIS, you will work out what reasonable and necessary supports you need to live your life and achieve your goals. You’ll then receive funding to pay for these supports.
Reasonable and necessary support help someone with a disability to:
- pursue their goals, objectives, and aspirations
- increase their independence
- increase social and economic participation, and
- develop their capacity to actively take part in the community.
This support may include education, employment, community, and social participation, independence, living arrangements, and health and well-being.
How will my funding be managed ?
There are 3 different ways you can manage your NDIS plan.
You don’t have to choose only one of these options. You can use a combination.
For example, you might self-manage some parts of your plan while the NDIA may look after other parts.
The three options are:
- Your plan is managed by someone from the NDIA
- Your plan is managed by a Plan Manager
- You manage your NDIS plan
Why to choose Ozzi Care Services?
