NDIS Disability Support
NDIS Transport Support in Tasmania
Disability support transport for agreed journeys such as appointments, activities, work and community access.
What is NDIS transport support?
AIC Services provides disability support transport that can help participants get to agreed destinations and take part in community life. It is support connected to the participant’s disability-support needs and service arrangement, not a general public taxi service.
Transport can be discussed as part of a broader support shift or as an agreed transport-related support, depending on the participant’s needs, schedule and funding arrangements.
Typical supported journeys
Support is discussed around the participant’s individual needs, preferences, goals and agreed service arrangements.
✓
Community and social activities
Participants may use transport support to access activities, groups, events and other community participation.
✓
Work, study and everyday destinations
Where appropriate to the participant’s support arrangement, journeys can include work, study and practical community destinations.
Planning safe and practical transport support
Before transport is confirmed, AICS discusses the pickup and destination, timing, participant support requirements, mobility or accessibility considerations and what assistance is required during the journey.
Transport support often connects with community participation. If staff are also supporting the participant at the destination, the full shift and transport arrangements should be discussed together so expectations are clear.
AICS does not determine NDIS transport funding or entitlement. Participants should refer to their own plan and funding arrangements, and AICS can discuss whether the requested transport support can be provided.
