Considerations NDIA Makes When Adding Personal Care Supports to a Participant’s Plan
Personal care supports may be needed in various settings, such as living alone at home, with family, or even during social, work, or holiday activities.
When considering personal care supports, the NDIA evaluates how these supports:
- Enhance the participant’s independence and functional skills
- Are suitable for the participant’s age and situation
- Whether less intrusive alternatives, like aids or training, could meet the participant’s needs more effectively
Before adding any personal care supports to a participant’s plan, the NDIA must ensure that the support will help the participant achieve their goals, objectives and aspirations.
