Support Coordination and Psycho-Social Recovery Coaching

Your friendly team to help navigate the NDIA

As an ever-growing company, our Support Coordination team has been evolving along with us.

Rainbow Care Home Services are now lucky enough to be home to a team of five amazing Support Coordinators including also two Psycho-Social Recovery Coaches.

Rainbow Customer Service Team

Even your supports need support. That is where the Rainbow Customer Service Team comes in. Finn (He/Him), Kerry (She/Her) and Naomi (She/Her) are here to help you and your support workers to get the best out of your Rainbow Care Services. The Rainbow Connections team focuses on the back end of Rainbow Care with staff check-in’s, onboarding, rostering, the Rainbow Connections Booking Service, facilitating Day Programs or keeping the management team laughing in the office being priorities.  

If you are contacting Rainbow Care, look forward to talking with this happy and helpful team.  

Rainbow Workers

We are an openly LGBTIQ+ owned and operated business that specialises in meeting the needs of the LGBTIQ+ community. All staff at Rainbow Care are either self-identified members of the LGBTIQ+ community or allies to take the guess work out of knowing you will always get a friendly face. As a business that celebrates diversity and inclusivity at the core of everything we do, we welcome clients from all walks of life and nurture individuality and identity. All staff are qualified, experienced, police checked and insured. We believe in the quality of our staff, and we are confident you will feel the same.

Aged Care Support at Home

Aged Care Support at Home

We provide inclusive coordinated home care packages to those who are eligible. Please find details below of what this looks like.

Your Care Coordinator

Your Rainbow Care Coordinator will work with you to design your supports to make the most of the budget available to you.

Your Support Budget

The government will assess your support needs and assign you a budget to support this. Then you can nominate Rainbow Care to be your provider of choice to administer your funding.

If you do not believe your budget matches your level of need your care coordinator can work with you to request a re-assessment or explore alternate support pathways and funding.

DESIGN YOUR SUPPORTS

Rainbow Worker Team

Rainbow Care has a team of qualified and experienced care workers to support your personal care, in-home and community needs.

Allied Health & Clinical Team

If your needs are little more complex we will work with you to set up clinical supports such as nursing, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, other allied health supports or work with your existing team.

Equipment, mobility aids and maintenance

From a walking stick to wheelchair, continence products, consumables, day chairs to home modifications. Your care coordinator can work with you to organise any needed equipment or aids, including referrals to allied health for recommendations.

Other supports

Yard care, transport, emergency respite, meal delivery, home maintenance.

Monthly Statement & Budget Dashboard

You will begin receiving a monthly statement at the start of each month. This will show you how much funding you have, what has been used, by who and of course what you have left to spend. You can also have access or nominate somebody you trust to have access to our online budget dashboard to view any invoices processed and track your budget.

Preferred Provider

The choice is yours on who provides your supports. If you already have preferred providers like the lawn maintenance team that you have been using for the last 20 years or the physiotherapist down the road your care coordinator can work with you to have these providers set up to provide these supports under your funding package.

Are you eligible?

To access these services, you must have first been assessed and allocated an individual funding package. If you’re unsure but know you need the support let us know and we can walk you through the next steps. Note: We are not a CHSP provider

Take the guesswork out of NDIS Support Coordination

Rainbow Care Home Services is a NDIS registered provider of the below NDIS services:

This service is primarily focused on supporting you through the review process, implementation and building your capacity to get the best out of your NDIS Plan.

A Support Coordinator will support you to make your own decisions by breaking down the information and options in a way that works for you, so it is easier to understand.

Where Support Coordination Might Assist.

Your Support Coordinator might be able to assist you by supporting you to:

  • Understand and use your NDIS plan, making the most out of your funded supports
  • Connect with providers and access community and mainstream services
  • Build your ability to become more independent
  • Connect with people in your life such as family, friends, and carers to help you achieve your goals
  • Decide when you want to access supports and services and how much you want to pay for these
  • Help you with your service agreements and service bookings
  • Assist in planning ahead to prepare for your plan review

Note: Support Coordination is a reasonable and necessary support that is built into your plan during the review process if this is something evidenced as required to support the implementation of your plan.
