NDIS Access Request

Applying for the NDIS

Applying for the National Disability Insurance Scheme can feel overwhelming. Our occupational therapists guide participants through the access request process, providing the functional assessments and evidence needed to demonstrate how a disability affects daily life. We help you present a clear, well-documented application that addresses the NDIS eligibility criteria.

• Comprehensive functional assessments that document the impact of disability on daily activities
• Clear, professional reports written specifically for NDIS access request requirements
• Guidance on eligibility criteria and what evidence is needed to support your application
• Coordination with treating medical professionals and allied health providers to gather supporting documentation

Evidence Gathering and Report Writing

A strong NDIS access request relies on quality evidence. Our occupational therapists conduct thorough assessments in your home environment, observing how you manage daily tasks and identifying the areas where you need support. We then compile this information into a detailed report that clearly outlines your functional limitations and the supports required to improve your independence and quality of life.

• In-home functional observations across self-care, domestic tasks, community access, and social participation
• Standardised assessment tools to provide objective, measurable evidence of functional capacity
• Recommendations for reasonable and necessary supports linked to your identified functional needs

Understanding NDIS Eligibility

To be eligible for the NDIS, participants generally need to be under 65, an Australian citizen or permanent resident, and have a permanent and significant disability that affects their ability to participate in everyday activities. Our team can help you understand whether an NDIS access request is the right pathway and what evidence will strengthen your application. To discuss your NDIS access request, call us on 0450 874 303.

• Disability must be permanent or likely to be permanent, and significantly impact functional capacity
• Early intervention requirements for children where supports may reduce future needs
• Support with internal reviews and resubmissions if an initial access request is unsuccessful
