If you're a carer for a disabled person or a wheelchair user, you'll know how important it is to have reliable and easy access to transport. That's why we're here to help you navigate the process of accessing National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) support.

This disability support can help you with the cost of things like modifying your home and vehicle to make them more accessible, or purchasing specialist equipment.

One type of equipment that can be vital for many disabled people is a mobility lifter.

With just a few simple tips, you'll be on your way to making life much easier for yourself and your loved ones. In this blog post, we'll share some tips on how you can easily access NDIS support for your mobility lifter and other mobility aids.

We hope you find this information helpful!

What is the NDIS and how can it help you with a mobility lifter for your car?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a Government funded program aimed at helping people with disabilities get access to the support they need with their day-to-day living costs.

This includes not only long-term funding for support and services, but also the opportunity to have specialised equipment and aids such as our range of patient lifts and hoists funded by NDIS.

If you have a disability that affects your ability to drive or travel, investing in a mobility lifter can make life much easier. With the NDIS, you can apply for funding that can help cover all or part of the cost of mobility aids – making them more accessible and enabling you to take control of your journey with greater independence and confidence.

This blog will give you the information and support you need to navigate this process, so don’t miss out on this opportunity. Keep reading!

Who is eligible for NDIS support and how do you access it?

If you use a wheelchair and could benefit from a mobility lifter (or any other mobility aids) for your car, you may be eligible for support from the NDIS.

To see if you are eligible, you can begin by contacting a plan manager or checking the NDIS Access Checklist online to assess your needs and eligibility.

You need to meet certain age requirements and be an Australian citizen or permanent resident, as well as provide details about your situation and support needs. Once you've confirmed your eligibility, your plan manager will be able to help you apply directly with NDIS with an Access Request Form.

When it comes time to make a purchase, receiving NDIS funding will help make the process smoother and ensure you get the funding for the assistive technology you need.

With helpful guidance every step of the way, our team at Access Unlimited Lift are here for all of your NDIS plan management and mobility needs!

What kind of support can you get from the NDIS for mobility devices?

Trying to navigate through the NDIS can be quite overwhelming, but once you know what’s available and how it will help you and your family, getting relief from the financial strain of buying a mobility device for your car is easier than you might think.

The NDIS provides community care, support and funding and financial rebates for a variety of different mobility devices such as wheelchairs, scooters, lifts, and more.

If you would like to purchase specially adapted vehicles or devices to make life with a wheelchair easier, then the NDIS can also help with that too.
