Do you or your child have 'Assistive Technology' included in their NDIS Plan?
Assistive Technology and Consumables form part of the 'Core Budget', which is designed to fund the supports that help your child with everyday activities, their current disability related needs, and things that help them work towards their goals. Consumables are everyday items they may need such as continence products or low-risk & low-cost assistive technology and equipment to improve their independence.
The key is to think about your child's goals in their plan and think about which everyday or low cost items will help them achieve those goals (for example, to improve emotional regulation). Your Local Area Coordinator (if self-managed) or your Plan Manager contact (if plan-managed) would be able to answer more specific questions relevant to your child's specific plan.
