National Disability Insurance Scheme
NDIS Support Service
Closer Care is a registered NDIS provider under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), which means we comply with the government’s safety and quality standards for delivering services to individuals with disabilities.
As an approved NDIS provider, Closer Care has undergone multiple evaluations by the Quality and Safeguards Commission, successfully completed annual certification audits based on the NDIS Practice Standards, and fully adheres to the NDIS Code of Conduct. We also ensure that our team members will meet the necessary requirements outlined by the Commission.
Under the NDIS, government funding is allocated directly to individuals with disabilities rather than service providers. This empowers individuals to choose the services that best suit their unique needs.
Alternatively, if you prefer, you can opt to pay for our services using your own funds. Regardless of your situation, we are committed to providing you the support you need and tailoring our services to meet your individual requirements.
