Worksheet - Putting my plan in to action

When looking for someone to provide a support or service it’s important to think about whether they’re going to be a good fit. You need to make sure they can provide you with the support you need in the way you want. You can use this worksheet to help you choose service providers. You can fill it out when speaking with service providers, or print it out and use it as a checklist.

You can use this worksheet in different ways. For example, you can enter text in the boxes. If you’d like to express yourself in another way, for example visually – then leave the box blank before printing it.

Speaking up for what you want can be challenging. You can use the IMHA self-advocacy model in combination with this worksheet to help you let people know what it is you want.

Use the print function to print this page or save it as a PDF. There is no option to send this information and it will not be saved by the website.

Please check the box next to any questions you would like to answer and a text box will appear.
How is your plan managed?

How do you choose providers to deliver your services?

You may have already used some service providers before you joined the NDIS and you may choose to work with them again. You may also want to try new providers when you become an NDIS participant. When considering a service provider, talk to them about your goals and discuss how they can help you work towards them. Here are some questions you may ask:

Are you an NDIS registered provider?
Can I choose which staff will work with me?
Are you willing to sign a service agreement?
