Did you know your clients can employ people they already know and trust as their Support Workers?
That's right. We can support your clients to directly employ people they know and trust as their Support Workers without the need to go through an agency.
We handle all the tricky stuff. They employ who they want.
The traditional starting point for accessing Support Workers
Traditional agencies and online platforms are a great place to start when organising Support Workers. But what happens when they can’t meet your clients’ needs?
Based on their preferences, needs and location these options may just not be the right fit.
The Support Workers on offer are random.
The Support Workers that may suit their needs aren’t available in their area.
They have someone you know and trust, that they’d like to support them.
That’s where our Direct Employ service comes in
The NDIS guidelines allow for participants to employ Support Workers directly. That’s all well and good but the idea of figuring this out on their own is just too tricky for most families.
We believe that the NDIS vision around choice isn’t just a statement, but that it should, and can be a reality for every participant and their loved ones.
That’s why we’ve designed our service to open up people’s choice of who supports them and their loved ones.
