Evidence Is More Than a Diagnosis
When applying for the NDIS, a diagnosis is important, but it may not explain the whole picture.
Evidence is most helpful when it shows how disability affects everyday life.
This may include information about communication, mobility, self-care, decision-making, emotional regulation, social participation, learning, behaviour, safety or daily routines.
A useful question to ask your treating professional is:
“Can this report explain how my disability impacts my daily life and what support I need?”
Clear, practical information can help others understand your support needs.
At Star Support Soulutions, we encourage participants and families to keep notes and ask questions throughout the process.
