🚨 Big NDIS Update: New Way of Planning Coming in Mid-2026! 🚨
The Australian Government is rolling out a new framework for NDIS planning to make plans fairer, clearer and easier to use - shaped by what participants, families and carers have told them matters most.
✨ What’s Changing? ✅ A Support Needs Assessment: a guided conversation with a trained assessor to understand your disability support needs. ✅ Plans will be simpler with a more flexible budget that better matches your goals. ✅ Decisions will stay human-led — real staff approve plans, not automated systems.
📣 Important to Know: • You don’t need to do anything yet - current plans stay the same until you transition. • Changes will be phased in over time, so many people won’t see them straight away. • Children under 18 won’t be part of the first group of changes.
🗣 Have your say! Public consultation on the planning rules is open until 6 March 2026, so there’s still time to share your thoughts.

Supporting a loved one with an NDIS plan is meaningful, but it can also be overwhelming.
Behind every participant is a parent, sibling, or carer quietly organising appointments, managing paperwork, advocating, and holding everything together.
And sometimes… no one checks in on them.
At Lotus, we see the whole family - not just the plan. You deserve support, clarity, and a team that walks alongside you, not just your loved one.
If you’re feeling stretched, unsure about upcoming NDIS changes, or simply need guidance — we’re here to help.
Because caring for the carer matters too 💛

Feeling unsure about the new NDIS planning changes? You’re not alone.
Change can feel overwhelming — especially when it affects your supports, your funding, and your daily life.
With the new NDIS planning framework being introduced, many participants and families are asking: • Will my current plan change? • What is a support needs assessment? • Can I still request a review? • Do I need to do anything right now?
These are valid questions.
The most important thing to remember is that changes are being rolled out gradually. Your current plan remains in place until you’re formally moved into the new process. You still have the right to ask questions, seek clarification, and request a review if your situation changes.
If you’re feeling unsure, start small: ✔ Review what supports are working well ✔ Note any new challenges ✔ Write down your goals for the next 6–12 months ✔ Reach out for guidance before your next meeting
You don’t have to navigate planning changes alone. Support is about clarity, confidence, and making sure your plan reflects your real needs.
Sometimes reassurance is the first step forward 🌿

Mental Health Nurses' Day is about recognising the people who sit in the hard moments, without rushing, judging, or walking away.
They support regulation, recovery, and confidence. They hold space during setbacks. They celebrate progress others might never see.
Within NDIS support, mental health nurses play a vital role: working alongside participants, families, and support teams to build stability, routine, and long-term wellbeing.
Today, we recognise the calm, the patience, and the compassion behind real care.
Thank you for being the steady support when it matters most. 💞

Sometimes social connection doesn’t begin with a crowd. At Lotus, it often begins with something simple.
A shared cup of tea. ☕ Cooking a meal together. 🍳 A quiet walk where conversation comes naturally, or even not at all. 🚶🏻♀️
These everyday moments help build trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging. Research shows that regular, meaningful social interaction supports emotional wellbeing, cognitive function, and mental resilience. When connection feels safe and unforced, the brain is better able to engage and regulate.
At Lotus, we support social connection through:
• Daily Support – assistance with everyday routines • NDIS Plan Support – helping participants navigate and use their plans • Psychosocial Recovery – support for mental and emotional wellbeing • Domestic Support – creating a safe, comfortable living environment
Because connection isn’t about doing more, it’s about feeling included. __________________________________ Let Lotus be a part of your journey! 📍 Visit us: Suite 2B, 42 Bundall Road (Pegasus Centre), Ashmore QLD 4217 📞 Call: 1300 330 540 📧 Email: admin@mylotus.com.au 📱 Message us: Send us a Facebook message and we’ll get back to you promptly 🌐 Website: mylotus.com.au

But the real things:
• The parts of the day that feel overwhelming

• The support that’s working
• The support that isn’t
