“Finding the right support workers for my brother was stressful. He has cerebral palsy and is very particular about his routines. MD Home Care connected us with a provider in Australia who took the time to learn his preferences. They matched him with two regular support workers who understand his communication style and respect his independence. For the first time in years, I feel confident that he is getting the care he deserves.” - Lisa D., Australia

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between self-managed, plan-managed, and agency-managed NDIS funding?

Self-managed gives you the most flexibility. You choose your own providers, set your own rates (within reasonable limits), and manage the paperwork yourself. Plan-managed is a middle ground where a plan manager handles invoices and payments while you still choose your providers. Agency-managed means the NDIA pays registered providers directly, which limits your choice to NDIS-registered providers but involves the least administration. Many people in Australia use a combination across different budget categories.

Can I change my support workers if they are not the right fit?

Yes. Choice and control are core principles of the NDIS. If a support worker is not meeting your needs or the relationship is not working, you can request a change through your provider. Quality providers will work with you to find a better match without penalty or disruption to your services.

What qualifications do disability support workers need?

At minimum, disability support workers in the MD Home Care network hold a Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) or equivalent. They must also have a current NDIS Worker Screening Check, a National Police Check, first aid certification, and relevant insurance. For specialized roles like complex care or behaviour support, additional qualifications and training are required.

How quickly can disability home care services start?

Most providers in Australia can begin services within one to two weeks of your initial enquiry. The process involves an intake conversation, a needs assessment, and support worker matching. Urgent situations can often be accommodated more quickly, particularly for people transitioning from hospital or experiencing a crisis.

Can disability home support be combined with other NDIS services?

Yes. Disability home support works alongside many other NDIS-funded services. Many people in Australia combine home support with therapy services, support coordination, community participation, and assistive technology. Your support coordinator can help you build a package of services that works together to achieve your goals.
