How to Change Your NDIS Support Worker on the Gold Coast
You always have the right to change your NDIS support worker. Here's how to do it on the Gold Coast — quickly, easily, and without guilt.
You Have the Right to Change Workers
One of the most important — and underused — rights NDIS participants have is the right to change their support worker at any time. Whether the relationship isn't working, your needs have changed, or you simply want to try someone different, you are never locked in. This applies whether you're self-managed, plan-managed, or agency-managed.
When Should You Consider Changing?
Consider changing your support worker if: the worker is regularly late or unreliable, communication has broken down, your needs have changed and the worker doesn't have the right skills, you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, or you simply feel the relationship isn't a good fit. A good support worker should make your life easier — not harder.
How to Change Support Workers
If you're self-managed, simply stop booking the current worker and find a new one. If you're plan-managed, notify your plan manager and they'll update payment arrangements. If you're through an agency, contact the agency and request a change — you are entitled to do so without a penalty. If you're leaving an agency entirely, check your service agreement for notice period requirements.
