SUPPORT COORDINATION

Support Coordination is a service provided by MMT Health to assist individuals with disabilities in navigating the NDIS and accessing the supports and services they need. Support Coordinators work closely with participants to understand their goals and preferences and help them choose and manage service providers.

The primary purpose of Support Coordination is to empower individuals with disabilities to make informed choices about their supports and services. Support Coordinators assist with plan implementation, budget management, and advocating for the individual’s needs. They also ensure that services are delivered in a coordinated and efficient manner, promoting the best possible outcomes for the participant.

  • Assessment and Planning:

    MMT Health initiates the Support Coordination process by conducting a comprehensive assessment of the individual's needs, abilities, and goals. This assessment involves collaborative input from the person with a disability, their family, and relevant healthcare professionals. A personalized plan is then developed to outline the specific support requirements

  • Skilled Staffing

    Support Coordination often requires knowledgeable and skilled staff who understand the intricacies of the NDIS and the diverse needs of individuals with disabilities. MMT Health employs staff members with the necessary qualifications and experience to provide specialized support tailored to the individual's needs. Continuous training and competency updates are provided to keep staff well-informed and capable of delivering high-quality service.

  • Individualized Support:

    MMT Health's Support Coordination service is highly individualized, addressing the unique needs and goals of each person. This may include assistance in understanding NDIS plans, identifying suitable service providers, setting goals, and developing a strategy to achieve those goals. The focus is on empowering the individual to make informed decisions about their support and care.

  • Monitoring and Review:

    Regular monitoring of the individual's progress is a core aspect of Support Coordination. MMT Health conducts periodic reviews, either at predetermined intervals or in response to changes in the individual's health or circumstances. This ensures that the support plan remains aligned with the person's evolving needs and goals.

  • Coordination with Other Services:

    MMT Health takes a holistic approach to care by collaborating with the individual and other healthcare services, such as medical specialists, therapists, and equipment suppliers. This coordination ensures that the person receives comprehensive care that addresses all aspects of their well-being, and that NDIS supports are integrated effectively with other services.

  • Flexibility and Choice:

    Within the framework of the NDIS, MMT Health respects the individual's and their family's preferences and aims to give them the flexibility to choose the services and supports that best meet their needs. Support Coordination is centered on empowering individuals to exercise choice and control over their supports.

  • Quality and Safety:

    Quality and safety are paramount in the delivery of Support Coordination services by MMT Health. Adherence to NDIS quality and safety standards ensures that the care provided is safe, effective, and of high quality. This commitment to quality ensures that individuals receive the best possible support in navigating the NDIS and achieving their goals.
