What you can consider
Choose the Right Support Worker for Your Life
The person providing support matters, especially when they are regularly coming into your home. These are the kinds of things you can weigh up before deciding who supports you.
- Location
- Experience
- Availability
- Gender preference
- Language
- Cultural considerations
- Interests
- Personality
- Support skills
- Preferred days and times
- Consistency
Choice and control
You decide who provides your support, when it happens and how it is delivered.
Support close to home
We look at workers living near you, so support is realistic to sustain week after week.
Reliability that holds
Support that turns up as agreed is the whole point — everything else depends on it.
Experience that fits
Workers whose background suits the support you actually need, not a generic roster fill.
People you are comfortable with
Personality matters. You can meet and choose the people who come into your home.
Support that fits your life
Built around your routines, your household and the things you want to keep doing.

We often help when
People Look for NDIS Support Workers When Things Change
You do not need to have everything figured out. These are some of the most common reasons families and participants get in touch.
Your needs have changed
What worked last year no longer covers everyday life, and the support plan needs to catch up.
Your current worker cannot deliver
Shifts are being missed, hours cannot be filled, or the specific support you need is not available.
You have moved
A new suburb, town or state means starting again with support close to your new home.
Leaving hospital or another setting
Support needs to be in place quickly so a discharge or transition is not delayed.
You need support urgently
Something has changed at short notice and the gap needs covering now.
You need additional hours
Existing supports are good, but there are not enough of them across the week.
You need more specialised support
Complex, clinical or behavioural support requires workers with the right experience.
You want greater choice
You would rather choose the people who support you than be allocated whoever is free.

Questions
NDIS Support Worker FAQs
How do I find NDIS support workers near me?
Tell us the suburb, the support needed and what matters to you. We will look at the NDIS support workers available in that area and help you explore options so you can choose, rather than cold-call providers.
Can I choose my own NDIS support worker?
Yes. Choice and control is central to the NDIS. You can review worker experience, availability and background, ask questions, and decide who comes into your home.
Can a parent, nominee or family member enquire on someone's behalf?
Yes. Most enquiries come from a parent, family member, nominee, guardian or carer. Just tell us your relationship to the participant and we will guide you through the next step.
What NDIS supports can Support Network workers help with?
In-home support, personal care, community access, social participation, transport, domestic assistance, respite, overnight support, SIL support, complex care and nursing support where appropriate.
Do I need to know my funding details first?
No. Self-managed, plan-managed or agency-managed — tell us what you know, or that you are unsure, and we will explain how support usually works with each.
How quickly can NDIS support start?
It depends on your area, the support required and availability. Urgent situations such as hospital discharge are common — tell us the timeframe and we will be honest about what is realistic.
Do you support complex or high-intensity needs?
Yes. Tell us what the support involves — manual handling, PEG, bowel care, epilepsy, behaviour support or specific languages — and we will factor that into the workers put forward.
Are the workers verified?
Identity is verified, NDIS worker screening and relevant checks are held, and qualifications are documented where a support type calls for them. Insurance and ongoing compliance are also monitored.
Does Support Network decide my NDIS funding?
No. Support Network does not assess, approve or guarantee NDIS funding or eligibility. We help you find support workers and arrange services that fit the plan you already have.
Is there any obligation when I enquire?
None. The first conversation is about understanding what you need and explaining the options available near you.
