support coordination

LEVEL 2 - Support Coordination – coordination of supports

 

The role of the support coordinator is to assist you as per support connection. In addition, the support coordinator will work alongside you, ensuring you have the required supports to enable you to live independently in the community. Support Coordinators will assist you to manage provider supports and increase your capacity to maintain those relationships.

​

Westpeak Support Services provides experienced support coordination to help NDIS participants make the most of their plans.
