What is an NDIS provider, and how do I choose one?
An NDIS provider is an organisation or person that delivers funded supports to NDIS participants. Registered providers like Sahima Care Services meet the NDIS Practice Standards. When choosing, look for local knowledge, qualified support workers, flexible scheduling and a genuine person-centred approach.
Who is eligible for the NDIS?
The NDIS supports Australians under 65 with a permanent and significant disability that affects their everyday activities. Eligibility also depends on residency requirements. If you're unsure, we can help you understand the process and point you to the right next step.
What does NDIS funding cover?
NDIS funding can cover supports across three budgets — Core Supports (everyday assistance), Capacity Building (skills and independence) and Capital Supports (equipment and home modifications). We deliver supports across all three, from daily living help to home modifications.
What is NDIS core support?
NDIS core support funds everyday assistance that helps you live your daily life and work towards your goals — including Assistance with Daily Life, Community Participation, Transport and Household Tasks. It's the most flexible part of most plans, and several of our services fall under it.
What is the difference between SIL and STA?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is ongoing daily support for participants living in their own or shared home. Short-Term Accommodation (STA), or respite, is a supported stay away from home for a short period — useful for a break, a change of environment, or to give carers time to rest.
How much do NDIS services cost in Thornhill Park?
NDIS-funded supports are charged in line with the current NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits, so approved supports are funded through your plan rather than paid out of pocket. We're transparent about how every support is billed against your funding — just ask and we'll walk you through it.
Does the NDIS support people with mental health conditions?
Yes. The NDIS funds support for participants with a psychosocial disability arising from a mental health condition. Our support workers provide person-centred help with daily living, community participation and building independence for participants living with psychosocial disability.
Can I choose or change my support worker?
Yes. We match you with support workers who suit your needs and personality, and work to keep that team consistent. If a worker isn't the right fit, just let us know and we'll arrange someone who is — a trusted relationship is central to good support.
Do you support participants who are self-managed or plan-managed?
Yes. We support NDIA-managed, plan-managed and self-managed participants, and can explain how your plan management affects your options.
