NDIS assist life stage transition support helps you plan for and manage major life changes. Moving out of home, finishing school, starting a job or living on your own for the first time can feel overwhelming, especially when you live with a disability. At Serene Disability Support, we’re a registered NDIS provider across New South Wales. We help NDIS participants prepare for these changes, build the skills they need and keep their supports on track.
What is assist life stage transition?
Assistance with life stage transition is NDIS registration group 0106. It’s support for the moments when life changes and your needs change with it. The focus is on capacity building, so you can make decisions, solve problems and handle the next stage of life with more independence.
Life transitions for people with disabilities can include:
- Starting school, or moving from school to further study or work
- Moving out of the family home or into new accommodation
- Starting a new job or a new course at TAFE or uni
- Changes in health, relationships or family support
- Leaving hospital or another care setting
What life stage transition support includes
Every transition is different, so we personalise support to your individual needs and goals. Depending on your NDIS plan, life stage transition support can include:
- Transition planning, working out what needs to happen, and when
- Skill development, like budgeting, cooking, daily planning and independent living skills
- Decision-making support, so you can weigh up your options and make choices that are right for you
- Mentoring and peer support, with people who understand what you’re going through
- Tenancy support, such as understanding a lease, paying rent and getting along with neighbours
- Emotional support, to help you manage change and stress
We also work closely with your support coordinator, family and other providers, so your supports stay coordinated through the change.
Why life stage transition support matters
Major life changes are easier with a plan. Good transition support means fewer surprises, less stress and more time to build the skills you’ll need. It also helps you keep the things that matter, like friendships, routines and community participation, while everything else is changing. Our ultimate goal is to help you move into the next stage of life with confidence and maintain your independence.
Life stage transition support that fits the rest of your life
Transitions rarely happen in one area alone. Moving out might mean you need help at home, and starting work might mean learning a new route. We can link life stage transition support with our other services, such as daily living and life skills, employment support and travel and transport. Our care is nurse-led, so if your health needs are part of the change, they’re planned for too.
