The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is revolutionizing the way Australians with disabilities live, work, and engage in their communities. One of the key components of this transformation is the use of Assistive Technology (AT), which plays a critical role in enhancing independence for NDIS participants. From mobility aids to communication devices, AT allows individuals to overcome challenges and live life on their own terms.
What is Assistive Technology?
Assistive Technology refers to any device, equipment, or system that helps people with disabilities perform tasks they otherwise might struggle with. This could range from hearing aids, prosthetics, or mobility scooters to specialized software for communication and accessibility. With the right AT, people can gain greater control over their daily activities and improve their quality of life.
How NDIS Supports Assistive Technology
Through the NDIS, participants have access to funding for AT that suits their needs and goals. This funding allows people with disabilities to obtain the tools necessary for greater independence—whether it’s a customized wheelchair, a smart home system, or a learning aid for children. The goal is to empower participants to make choices and improve their daily living experiences.
