Navigating the NDIS Commission
For many providers navigating through the NDIS has been very challenging, to add to this the NDIS on the 1st of July 2018 also introduced the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission for all disability providers. Whilst not all states are rolled out at the same time, the first cabs off the rank are once again New South Wales and South Australia, with other states to follow suit over the next two years.
To assist with the many headaches the NDIS is causing providers, we have put together a simple training session, which is presented by former operational disability leaders and aimed at management and support staff.
If your team can spare three to four hours we will come to your organisation and educate your staff using simple operational scenarios, including but not limited to the following:
What are the six reportable incident categories
How to complete a Reportable Incident Notification and Complaint Form
Notifications and Timeframes
Incident Management Systems
Changes to Restrictive Practice and
Code of Conduct for Workers
Plus, if you are a disability provider with services in NSW, we will also provide your team with a refresher in relation to disability reportable incidents, Part 3C of the Ombudsman Act, 1974 – why? Because if incidents occur prior to the 1stof July 2018 but are reported after this date, they still need to be reported to the NSW Ombudsman Office.
