Your NDIS plan review is a valuable opportunity to ensure your supports and funding align with your current needs and goals. Being well-prepared can make the process smoother and help you get the most from your plan. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
1. Reflect on Your Current Plan
- What’s working well? What isn’t?
- Are you achieving your NDIS goals, or have your needs changed?
2. Gather Evidence and Reports
- Collect recent reports from therapists, support workers, or service providers.
- Request progress updates and recommendations for future supports.
3. Track Your Progress and Challenges
- Keep notes or a diary of achievements, difficulties, and unmet needs.
- Highlight any changes in your health, daily living, or circumstances.
4. Review Your Funding and Supports
- Check if you’ve used all your funding or if you need more/less in certain areas.
- List supports or services you’d like to add, change, or remove.
5. Prepare Questions and Requests
- Write down any questions for your planner or Local Area Coordinator (LAC).
- Be ready to discuss new goals or changes in your situation.
6. Bring Support to Your Review
- Invite a family member, advocate, or support coordinator to join you.
- They can help you communicate your needs and provide extra information.
7. Stay Organised
- Bring all relevant documents, reports, and your NDIS plan to the meeting.
- Use a checklist to ensure nothing is missed.
