Support Coordination
Thrive House's Support Coordination team offers their service to those in our community that require assistance with their NDIS plan. We believe NDIS clients have the right to be safe and to receive quality services from the providers and workers they select to care them.
The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission is here to ensure people with disability have a strong voice about their rights to be safe, to exercise choice and control, and to have their human rights upheld.
Meet some of our team and get in touch to discuss how we can help you. We'd love to hear from you.
Support Coordination
Support Coordination focuses on supporting individuals to direct their lives, not just their services, assisting to build and maintain a resilient network of formal and informal supports.
This involves working together with the individual to understand funding, identify service expectations and clarify how to customise this design.
Coordination of Supports also includes coaching and working with individuals to develop capacity and resilience in their network.
This includes, but is not limited to:
-
Understanding the Plan;
-
Connecting with Supports and Services;
-
Designing Support Approaches;
-
Coaching, Refining and Reflecting;
-
Personalised Support Coordination;
-
Crisis: Planning, Prevention, Mitigation and Action;

Specialist Support Coordination
Specialist Support Coordination is delivered by an appropriately qualified and experienced practitioner to meet the specific needs of the individual circumstances. This may include the use of a Psychologist, Occupational Therapist, Social Worker, or Mental Health Nurse.
Specialist Support Coordinators assist individuals to reduce complexity in their support environment and overcome barriers to connecting with broader systems of support (including those funded).
This includes, but is not limited to:
-

-
Non-Face-to-Face Support Provision
