Navigating NDIS: What's Covered and What's Not

Hello Mr Thompson

Welcome to hello! Mr. Thompson, where we're not too serious, but seriously capable of supporting you through your NDIS journey! We know that understanding the ins and outs of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) can sometimes feel like navigating a maze, but don't worry, we're here to shed some light on the process – and have a little fun along the way!


Let's start by diving into what the NDIS covers, keeping in mind that coverage varies based on your approved funding package.


🛠️ Assistive Technology: Need a custom wheelchair or communication aid to help you navigate the world? We've got you covered! From hearing aids to home modifications, the NDIS can provide funding for the devices and technologies that enhance your independence – all tailored to your approved funding level.



🤲 Personal Care and Support: Sometimes, a helping hand is all you need to tackle the day with confidence. Our support workers are ready to assist with grooming, meal prep, and even household chores, so you can focus on what matters most – living your best life! And remember, our support is always personalized to your individual needs and the level of funding you've been approved for.




💆‍♂️ Therapeutic Supports: Whether it's physiotherapy to keep you moving, occupational therapy to hone your skills, or speech therapy to unleash your voice, our team is here to support your journey to wellness and independence. And with our help, you can make the most of your approved funding to access the therapies that best suit your needs and goals.




🎉 Community Participation: Who says support can't be fun? With funding for clubs, recreational programs, and social activities, we're all about helping you connect with your community and pursue your passions. And with Hello! Mr. Thompson by your side, you can rest assured that we'll help you make the most of your approved funding to participate in the activities that bring you joy and fulfillment.





💼 Employment Supports: Work is more than just a job – it's a chance to shine! Let us help you navigate the world of meaningful employment with job coaching, workplace modifications, and skills training tailored to your goals. And with our support, you can leverage your approved funding to unlock exciting opportunities for personal and professional growth.





Now, let's talk about what the NDIS doesn't cover.


🏫 Mainstream Supports: While we'd love to help you ace that exam or catch that bus, services provided by other government departments – like education and public transport – fall outside the NDIS umbrella.




💸 Everyday Living Costs: We might be able to whip up a mean meal, but unfortunately, the NDIS won't cover your grocery bill. Rent, utilities, groceries, and clothing are all part of everyday life that you'll need to budget for separately.




💄 Supports Unrelated to Disability: While we're all about helping you look and feel your best, cosmetic surgery and non-disability related health treatments aren't covered by the NDIS. But don't worry, we think you're beautiful just the way you are!




🚑 Emergency Services: In case of emergency, you can count on us for ongoing support. But when it comes to immediate medical attention, it's best to rely on your local emergency services, like the ambulance.




At hello! Mr. Thompson, we're not just here to provide support – we're here to make you smile! So whether you're navigating the NDIS for the first time or you're a seasoned pro, remember that we're always here to lend a helping hand – with a sprinkle of laughter on top. Let's embark on this journey together and make every step count!
