Empower Your Life with NDIS Assistive Technology Solutions!
The NDIS offers funding for individuals with disabilities to access services that can help them attain their goals. Alongside capacity-building programs, training, therapy, and care services, this also includes funding for a group called ‘NDIS Assistive Technology’. AT building AT, or Assistive Technology AT, or assistive technology, is an umbrella term for any piece of system, software programme, assistive technology, or programmer equipment that offers practical solutions to daily life activities.
We understand the need for participants to live their potential irrespective of their limitations. At JASPER CARE SERVICES, we know that NDIS assistive technology can maintain, increase, and improve the functional capabilities of individuals with complex needs. As a leading NDIS provider, we support participants with access to AT throughout Australia.
What is the NDIS As programme, an NDIS Assistive Technology Assessment?
Assistive Technology: An NDIS technology can range from simple to bespoke, very complex solutions.
- An assessment is often needed to decide which solution best suits your situation, a technological situation, and thus what level of funding you are eligible for.
- AT assessments are conducted by an AT Assessorsituation andassessor who inspects your situation and needs and helps you identify a suitable AT solution.
- This could be a rehabilitation engineer, AT mentor, nurse, or health practitioner.
- For home modification requests or more complex equipment, you may need to submit quotes for the modification or an AT assessor.

What types of support are provided by the NDIS?
The NDIS is responsible for:
- Offering equipment and aids, including permanent prosthetics and orthosis supports that offer independent or increased functioning in the community and home.
- Home modifications and personal support which enable an individual with disability orthoses or a disability to live in the community
- Supervision by clinically trained staff to deliver essential care that enables a person with a disability to live safely in the community, such as catheter changes and monitoring skin integrity.
- Non-clinical, routine care to enable everyday living for people with disabilities, for instance, oral suctioning and bowel care.
The NDIS Assistive Technology guideline outlines how participants can access and use technology to support their independence and daily living needs.
How are NDIS assistive technology providers transforming the lives of people with disabilities?
Assistive technology provides different benefits to support an individual with a disability. For instance, a disability is usually funded if it can be seen to enhance the quality of life in the following ways:
- Controlling the environment: NDIS Assistive disability. Assistive technology may increase the level of control an individual with a disability has over their environment.
- Increases confidence: For individuals whose disabilities affect their independence, improved access to assistive technology can create greater opportunities to live more independently.
- Increases dignity and privacy: The use of AT can reduce the need for help from carers or assistive family, which will increase the participants’ dignity and privacy, particularly in the area of personal care.
- Lowers the cost of living: Smart technology solutions can perform multiple tasks, helping to lower overall costs.
- Reduces risk of accidents: Innovations, for instance, artificial intelligence, can add a layer of security.
