Navigator

NDIS Navigators are dedicated professionals designed to help individuals and people with disability and their families navigate the often-complex, confusing and complicated support systems. At Australian Care Foundation (ACF), whether you’re an NDIS participant or those who are not eligible for the NDIS, we, as a Navigator, are here to simplify the process, connect you to the right resources, and provide ongoing support according to your needs.

Your Guide to the NDIS and Beyond

Your Path to Success

Navigator services guide individuals through the NDIS and other support systems, helping them access the right services, plan their care, and navigate complex processes with ease.

Our Commitment to You

Understanding participants situations, identifying their challenges, and leveraging their strengths.

Creating a tailored plan based on participants’ NDIS funding, support needs, and desired frequency of services.

How does an NDIS navigator work?

Navigators acts as your guide, helping you:

Figuring out services and support can feel overwhelming, but that’s where navigators come in. They make things easier by explaining complicated technical languages, policies, and eligibility in a way that’s simple and easy to understand. Navigators are here to help you see all your options clearly so you can make the best decisions for yourself.

Finding the right support services is very important, and navigators are here to help. They’ll take the time to understand your goals, preferences, and challenges, then match you with local and specialised services that fit your needs—healthcare, therapy, housing, or more. Navigators ensure you’re connected to trusted community providers who can help.

Planning and managing support services can take much time and energy, but navigators are here to make it easier. They’ll work with you to create a simple plan that lays out your goals, the steps to get there, and the services you’ll need. Navigators also take care of the details—like setting up appointments, activities, and meetings with service providers. They’ll help you understand your NDIS budget and make sure your funds are used in a way that works best for your priorities.

Who Can Use a Navigator?

Supporting you with accessing funded services and using the services.

Supporting you with accessing foundational supports and mainstream services.

How can our navigators team benefit you?

Our navigators are tailored to support your diverse and individualised needs:

Navigators guide and support people with disabilities in accessing everyday services and foundational supports. They’ll help you create a plan to make the most of your NDIS budget, book and coordinate services when needed, and regularly check in to see how things are going and if any adjustments are required.

Navigators provide extra support for NDIS participants with more complex needs. They’ll work closely with you and help you manage interactions with multiple systems, like hospitals or child protection services, to ensure everything is coordinated and works smoothly for you.

Navigators provide mental health support by helping you connect with community programs and access therapy. They’ll reach out on your behalf, guide you through application processes for services even outside the NDIS, and work with you to set and achieve your goals. They’re here to help you find the proper support and connect with mental health services that suit your needs.

Navigators can help you find and secure housing that suits your needs and lifestyle.

If you share support with others, your preferences must be heard and respected. Our Navigators will ensure everyone involved gets a say in how the support is set up and provided so it works well for everyone.

A specialist focused on children and families will be there to help. They’ll work with you to understand your child’s needs, connect you with the proper support and services, and offer advice, guidance, and coaching to support your child’s growth and development.
