How to craft kick-ass NDIS evidence (part two)

In this episode Mel chats with Alexandra - or Alex - Browne, a senior support coordinator and recovery coach in the NDIS space. Having started out in occupational therapy, Alex has been working in the disability sector for a decade and her own son, Ethan, is on the NDIS.  Alex is an expert on evidence - the reports, assessments, letters and information we need to provide the NDIS in order to paint a picture of who our family is and what we need to live an ordinary life.  Part two of Alex and Mel's chat covers how good evidence is structured, why it’s important to back yourself up from multiple sources of evidence, and why we need to push back on our providers when their evidence isn’t up to scratch.  Useful links: NDIS vs Mainstream NDIA Operational Guideline: https://ourguidelines.ndis.gov.au/how-ndis-supports-work-menu/mainstream-and-community-supports/who-responsible-supports-you-need The NDIS Act: Reasonable and Necessary: https://teamdsc.com.au/resources/ndis-act-part-1 Hireup's Navigating the NDIS portal: https://hireup.com.au/navigating-the-ndis/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
