From daily tasks to life’s little joys, a Lotus support worker is here to support your wellbeing on your NDIS journey. 

The importance of choosing a support worker through a registered NDIS provider?

On your NDIS journey, having a support worker is really important. These people provide care and also help you live more independently, build skills and feel connected to their community. Also, they can assist with a wide range of daily needs. 

Choosing a support worker means choosing someone who will be by your side. That’s why it’s better to choose from a registered NDIS provider, who is approved by the NDIS and meets strict safety and quality standards.

3 benefits of choosing a registered NDIS support worker

  • Better safety and quality: Registered providers are checked for training, background and safety, so services and support workers meet high standards
  • Access to more funding: If your NDIS plan is managed by the NDIA, you need a registered provider to access your funding. This gives you more choices and easier payments.
  • Accountability and support: Registered providers have systems for complaints and incidents. They are required to support and supervise their staff, so your feedback is taken seriously and problems get solved professionally.

Know the boundaries well

Our support workers respect boundaries to make the relationship professional and safe. We protect both the participant and the worker and make sure everyone understands what the role includes and what it doesn’t.

For example, boundaries being blurred can include:
