There is an important update from the NDIS this week. A national investigation is underway to protect participants from organised criminal groups who are allegedly defrauding the scheme. The Fraud Fusion Taskforce is leading this work, targeting networks suspected of lodging up to 50 million dollars in false claims.

This effort protects participants, families, and the integrity of the NDIS. A stronger system means safer, more reliable support for the people who depend on it.

At DisabilityCo we stand for quality care, transparency, and doing what is right for every participant.

What Is Short Term Respite and When Is It Helpful?

Short Term Respite can make a big difference for participants and families. It provides temporary support when someone needs a safe place to stay, new experiences, or a break from their usual routine.

Short Term Respite can be helpful when:
• A carer needs time to rest or attend to personal commitments
• A participant wants to build independence in a supported setting
• There is a change in usual home arrangements
• A participant wants to join new social activities or practice daily living skills

It is more than a short break. It is a chance to learn, grow, and feel supported while routines shift.

A quick refresher for Support Coordinators and Support Workers.
The NDIS uses the term “reasonable and necessary” to decide what supports can be funded in a participant’s plan. It sounds complex, but the core idea is simple. The support must help the person reach their goals, build skills, improve daily living, or increase independence.

A support is usually considered reasonable and necessary when:
• It relates directly to the participant’s disability
• It represents value for money
• It is safe and effective
• It benefits the person long term, not just short term
• It does not replace everyday living costs

Understanding this helps everyone plan better, avoid delays, and get the most from each plan.

The NDIS has introduced a new After Hours Crisis Referral Service to support participants who suddenly lose their disability-related care outside business hours. It gives emergency services a way to get urgent help for someone who needs immediate support.

If you work with participants, this is an important update. It closes a gap many families worry about and strengthens safety after hours.

The latest discussions aimed at shifting children with autism from the NDIS into a new “Thriving Kids” program are now facing a halt. State and federal governments are yet to agree on key details and definitions, leaving families and support networks unsure of what comes next.

At DisabilityCo, we understand that uncertainty creates stress. Since 2018, we have been supporting participants with compassion and clarity through every change in the system. If you’re looking for a trusted partner you can rely on during transitions, we’re here.

The NDIA is inviting feedback on a new plan to strengthen First Nations leadership within the NDIS.

The First Nations Market and Sector Development Strategy focuses on growing Aboriginal-owned providers and improving access to supports close to home.

As an NDIS-registered provider, we believe in empowering every community with culturally safe, inclusive, and local care.

Recent headlines have highlighted uncertainty in the disability employment sector after the closure of a major provider. While many are calling for clearer guidance, one thing remains constant: the need for stability, trust, and quality care across the NDIS.

At DisabilityCo, we see this as a moment to lead with integrity and reliability. Our focus is on sustainable supports, building homes, connections, and services that participants can count on, no matter what changes around them.

The Federal Government has announced a $45 million investment to trial new disability support models and strengthen sector stability. We’re ready to adapt and continue setting the standard for participant-first care.
