What Is the NDIS?
The NDIS is Australia's national scheme for people with permanent and significant disabilities. It funds support and services that help participants achieve their goals, increase independence, and improve quality of life. From allied health to personal care, the NDIS ensures that people receive the help they need, when and where they need it.
Why Choose an NDIS Registered Provider in Newcastle?
Registered NDIS providers like EnableU meet strict quality and safeguarding standards set by the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. Choosing a registered provider ensures:
- Compliance with national care standards
- Access to a wider range of supports, especially if you are agency-managed
- Trained, qualified and police-checked staff

How to Access the NDIS in Newcastle
To become a participant, you must meet eligibility criteria including age, residency, and disability status. Once approved, you will receive an individualised plan that outlines your goals and the supports funded to help you achieve them.
EnableU can guide you through the registration process, from gathering medical documentation to attending planning meetings with the NDIA or a Local Area Coordinator (LAC).
Understanding Your NDIS Plan
NDIS plans are divided into support categories. Two of the most commonly used are:
- Core Supports: For everyday activities like personal care, household tasks, and transport.
- Capacity Building Supports: For therapies, skill development, and achieving long-term goals.
Knowing how to allocate funding between these categories ensures you make the most of your plan.
