For NDIS participants in Mill Park, Lalor, Plenty and surrounding suburbs, Lotus Healthcare offers a comprehensive range of in-home support and disability care services.
Our highly trained support workers assist clients of all ages in the delivery of their NDIS plans. This includes non-medical supports, such as companionship care and assistance with household tasks, as well as nursing services, post hospital care and palliative care. We also provide Home Care Packages (HCP) and Targeted Care Packages (TCP), as well as care respite for NDIS participants and their families.
As a local registered NDIS provider, Mill Park participants work with us when they need supports specified in their plans. This includes assistance to undertake daily living activities and household tasks, such as meal preparation, cleaning and laundry, as well as personal care tasks. Assistance can also include transport services that aid overall mobility and encourage community and social participation.
Any supports Lotus Healthcare provides are tailored to suit the individual needs and circumstances of participants, and all our services are provided by a highly trained team who are committed to providing the highest levels of flexible, in home care Melbourne NDIS participants can enjoy.
In order to ensure that all aspects of participants’ health and wellbeing are cared for, our team also includes psychologists, registered mental health nurses and mental health allied support staff, who provide easy and convenient access to these and other vital mental health services.
We also offer prospective and existing NDIS participants support coordination and plan management services.
For those who are applying to become NDIS participants, we can offer advice and guidance on the process of making an application and getting a plan approved. If you are a new participant, or already have a plan, we can help you to understand what services are available to you, as well as which providers are best equipped to provide those services.
Further to this, our experience as an NDIS provider Mill Park wide means that we have established strong relationships with other local organisations who offer a variety of different supports and services. These include local doctors and medical practitioners, as well as support groups, social clubs, schools and other places where you can engage with others and take part in community life.
It can also be the case that additional funding options are available for participants outside the auspices of the NDIS. We can assist you, for instance, in applying for financial assistance from the Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP), the State Government, or from alternative private sources.
We can provide support and respite when family members who are primary carers have other commitments that they need to fulfil, or require some time away from their care responsibilities.
In addition, we can provide accommodation options for participants when the alternative might involve them having to stay in hospital for an extended period of time, or be admitted to a Melbourne aged care facility. These include both short- and medium-term options, and can be a timely solution when participants are waiting for more appropriate, permanent accommodation to become available.
We also have a Day Centre at Yarrambat where both children and adults have the opportunity to work towards achieving their individual development goals, assisted by our qualified support workers in a welcoming, inclusive sensory environment. There is also a range of on-site disability care and other medical services available, provided by local doctors and other medical practioners.
