Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our complaints process and your rights as an NDIS participant.

About the Process

What counts as a complaint?

A complaint can be about anything related to our services β€” including the quality of therapy, communication, scheduling, staff conduct, billing, or anything else you feel isn't right. We welcome all feedback, whether it's a formal complaint or a general suggestion for improvement.

How long does it take to resolve a complaint?

It depends on the complexity of the issue. Simple concerns may be resolved quickly, while more complex matters take longer to investigate properly. We'll keep you informed of the progress at each stage so you know what to expect.

What if I'm not happy with the outcome?

If you're not satisfied with how your complaint has been resolved, you have the right to escalate it to the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission. You can call them on 1800 035 544 (free call from landlines) or lodge a complaint through their website. You can contact them at any time β€” you don't need to come to us first.

Your Rights & Privacy

Will making a complaint affect my services?

Absolutely not. Making a complaint will never disadvantage you or change the quality of care you receive. Your services continue as normal throughout and after the complaints process. This is both our policy and your right under the NDIS.

Can someone else complain on my behalf?

Yes. A family member, carer, support coordinator, advocate or anyone you trust can submit a complaint on your behalf. Just let us know who is authorised to communicate with us about your concern and we'll work with them directly.

Is my complaint kept confidential?

Yes. All complaints are handled confidentially. Your personal details and the specifics of your concern are stored securely and only shared with the people directly involved in investigating and resolving the issue.

Can I provide positive feedback too?

Of course β€” we'd love to hear it. You can share positive feedback by email or phone, just like any other feedback. It helps us understand what's working well and encourages the team to keep delivering their best.

We're Here to Listen
