Support Coordination for Individuals with an NDIS Package

Support Coordination is an NDIS support item, whereby individuals receive help to manage their NDIS package. A TeamHEALTH Support Coordinator will work with individuals, their family, friends, service providers and other health professionals to develop a detailed support plan. The support plan is designed so that individuals can achieve the goals in their NDIS package. We will help individuals understand the flexibility in their funding to make sure they get the most out of their plan.

Child and Family SupportsThe Child and Family Wellbeing Service works in partnership with families to support children and young people (ages 0-18), who are showing early signs of, or are at risk of developing mental health concerns. Support is practical and flexible and is available in the family home, at a TeamHEALTH location, or somewhere in the community that suits you.
