Functional Capacity Assessments

Social Workers are one of the preferred professions to write Functional Capacity Assessments (FCA) for participants with psychosocial disability. FCA’s are a thorough, holistic assessment of a participant’s functional capacity across the domains of social interaction, communication, learning, mobility, self-care and self-management. FCA’s are usually written to assist with application to the NDIS, or when circumstances change to support a plan reassessment.

Level 2 Support Coordination

This support will assist you to build the skills you need to understand and use your plan. A support coordinator will work with you to ensure a mix of supports are used to increase your capacity to maintain relationships, manage service delivery tasks, live more independently and be included in your community.

Level 3 Support Coordination

This is a higher level of support coordination. It is for people whose situations are more complex and who need specialist support. A specialist Support Coordinator will assist you to manage challenges in your support environment and ensuring consistent delivery of service.
