Barriers and Enablers for Effective Support Coordination in the National Disability Insurance Scheme
Support coordinators act as intermediaries between the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and participants, facilitating access to funded supports. To optimise outcomes, they must navigate NDIS complexities, identify services that meet individual needs and engage with diverse stakeholders. This multifaceted role demands extensive system knowledge, specialised skills and key personal attributes. However, understanding how these factors in…
Inclusive housing for people with disability
The Down to 10 Days campaign was an advocacy initiative aimed at reducing long delays in housing approvals under Australia’s National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), a federal self-directed funding program for people with disability. Delays in securing appropriate housing often resulted in prolonged hospital stays or inappropriate placements, significantly impacting individuals’ well-being and independence. The campaign, led by a coalition of…
Evaluating the Feasibility of the Participant‐Led Video Intervention to Train Support Workers From the Perspective of Disability Sector Professionals
BACKGROUND: Tailored disability support is fundamental to the lives of adults with disability and complex needs. However, support quality is inconsistent. An intervention was co-designed to help people with disability direct their supports: participant-led videos (PLVs). Following a successful pilot study, this study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the use of PLVs by sector professionals working with people with disability in the community. …
Hurry Up and Get Me out of Here’
Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, the Australian Government set a target for no‐one under 65 years of age to be living in residential aged care (RAC) by 2025. The numbers of young people in residential aged care (YPIRAC) have significantly declined since the start of the targets. However, most of the reduction can be attributed to death and people turning 65 rather than to people moving into better housing. This qu…
Understanding the Housing and Support Experience of People With Complex Disability in Australia
In 2019, the Australian government established the Royal Commission into Violence, Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation of People with Disability (‘Disability Royal Commission’, DRC ) to investigate widespread mistreatment of people with disability. Nearly 10,000 people with disability, their families and supporters engaged with the DRC . The Commission published 1586 de‐identified narratives online, of which 485 focused on the theme of housing. The D…
The healthcare needs and general practice utilization of people with acquired neurological disability and complex needs
Development and preliminary evaluation of a novel participant‐led video intervention to train disability support workers
This paper describes the development and preliminary evaluation of a novel participant-led video (PLV) intervention to support people with disability (PWD) and cognitive and communication impairments to communicate their needs and preferences to their disability support workers. The PLV intervention was designed following a scoping literature review and workshop with PWD and close others. Subsequently, it was piloted with five primary participant…
Do young people with neurological conditions in residential aged care use hospitals differently than those in the community? Evidence from Victorian hospital data, 2014–2017
This study describes the duration and reasons for hospitalisation for three cohorts of younger adults with neurological conditions who either used residential aged care (RAC) or lived in the community. Hospitalisations as a clinical event indicate conditions for which younger people in RAC may need support as they move into community-based housing. Data describing 3 years of hospitalisations in Victorian public hospitals and emergency departments…
Young people in residential aged care
Over 4500 people under 65 years of age live in residential aged care (RAC) in Australia, and they experience poorer quality of life than people with similar disabilities in other settings. Governments have long aimed to reduce admissions of young people to RAC, but in 2019, for the first time, the Australian Government adopted target dates for resolving the issue. The targets include reducing admissions of young people to near zero by 2022 and en…
Making homes more accessible for people with mobility impairment
People with mobility impairment have the right to live in accessible housing that meets their needs. Although the Australian National Construction Code for residential housing will be amended to include minimum accessibility standards in September 2022, some states have chosen not to adopt these standards (New South Wales, Western Australia and South Australia). The inclusion of people with lived experience in decisions surrounding accessible hou…
General Considerations for Conducting Online Qualitative Research and Practice Implications for Interviewing People with Acquired Brain Injury
Qualitative methodology is key to understanding the lived experience of people with acquired brain injury (ABI). However, as demonstrated during the global pandemic (COVID-19), face-to-face interviewing is not always viable. This lack of availability has been particularly relevant for people with disability who are at increased risk of contracting the virus and experiencing poorer outcomes. Fortunately, advancing technologies provide increasing o…
Time Use Following a Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Recent outcome studies have found that a significant number of people have limited opportunity for meaningful occupation following severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this study was to compare the time use of 37 people more than three years post injury with time use in the general Australian population. This time use study was part of a broader research project, which examined community integration and factors that lead to successful …
