Started with Auscare Support:
August 2024
What I do:
As a Support Coordinator, I assist individuals in navigating the NDIS system, advocating for their rights, and ensuring they access the necessary supports and services to achieve their goals.
Unique skills:
I have lived experience as a woman with a disability, as well as a carer for a young person with disability. I was also raised by a parent who was legally blind and deaf. I understand the journey from many different angles.
Previous experience:
I have worked as an Advocate and AAT Appeals Officer, helping people access the NDIS after previous attempts failed, and assisting them in obtaining evidence-based reports to have their supports reconsidered. I have managed urgent transitions in complex situations, such as moving from unsuitable SIL arrangements or discharges from hospital back into the community.
I take pride in ensuring individuals’ concerns and complaints are heard and addressed by organisations like The Human Rights Commission and the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.
Other interesting roles:
I have worked with Assistance Animals and Therapy Pets, which has given me an understanding of how they can assist people and how to find a qualified and suitable services for individuals to access.
What’s Auscare Support like?
Very professional onboarding and great systems that allow Support Coordinators to do what they do best – navigating the NDIS and assisting people in reaching their goals.
Life outside:
My interests outside of work include spending time with my family, our dogs and horse, enjoying the bush and countryside, and collection pine cones and firewood for our open fire at home – to get through the cold Victorian weather, with its four seasons in one day!
