@dougie_herd I go bushwalking with my NDIS support workers too. It is the best!
Much as I rag on #NDIS for its many many MANY failings, 100% kudos to my LAC for providing excellent accommodations for me by condensing my plan review into a relaxed 25 minute phone convo and doing the rest by me emailing him documents. Further short convo on Friday to wrap up
Last documents email to my LAC for my #NDIS review on Tuesday. Cross fingers and toes for me everybody <3

VALID’s Advocacy Manager, Sarah Forbes, was interviewed this morning on ABC regional radio to talk about our opposition to NDIS Independent Assessments. abc.net.au/radio/goulburn…
Top disability advocates say a government plan to introduce “independent assessments” to the NDIS is aimed at cutting costs and will “fundamentally alter” the NDIS. bit.ly/3bzZRiQ
Prime Minister @ScottMorrisonMP people with disability, their families, and support workers must be prioritised in any #COVID19 vaccine roll out along with health and aged care. As they are at = high risk and mustn’t be forgotten #Disability @AfdoOffice @GregHuntMP @Anne_Ruston

AFDO welcomes today's announcement from @GregHuntMP. Extending #TeleHealth and home delivery medicine services will help many people with #disabilities in Australia to continue to receive medical care and support in their own homes. #disability #COVID19Aus #COVID19Vic
By providing telehealth and home delivery medicine services we are reducing the risk of exposure to COVID-19 in the community, while also supporting people in isolation to get the care they need. greghunt.com.au/2-billion-to-e…

We know independent assessments are a big change for people applying to access the NDIS, and for existing participants. And we understand that change can create uncertainty. We’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions (FAQs): bit.ly/33aNch4
We have created a new resource – the Early Childhood provider report form. It guides providers to write reports for plan reviews for participants aged under seven years. Tap to learn more and download the form: bit.ly/2F3lb2E
