Hello Everyone! This episode is for you students and newly graduated speechies! More often than not you'll work with clients who are participants of the NDIS, therefore in this episode we touch on briefly what the NDIS is and some important aspects to consider when referring, writing reports and the overall basics of what an NDIS plan looks like.
We understand there are a lot of pieces of information that we haven't touched on in this episode (otherwise it would have gone on forever!) however our biggest tip - when in doubt speak to your supervisor, director or someone from the NDIS to help point you in the right direction.
Let us know if there is anything else you'd like to hear on this topic and we will answer further questions regarding the NDIS in future episodes.
