🚩 “They’re just being nice…”

But what happens when a support worker starts texting outside shift hours, asking personal questions, accepting gifts, or doing favours outside the plan?

That’s where healthy boundaries matter.

In NDIS support, boundaries are not about being rude, cold, or difficult. They help protect your safety, privacy, independence, and comfort.

A good support relationship should feel:

✅ Respectful
✅ Professional
✅ Clear
✅ Safe
✅ Focused on your goals

You are allowed to say:

“I’m not comfortable with that.”
“Please only message me about my shifts.”
“I’d prefer we keep things professional.”
“Can we check this with my provider first?”

Because support should empower you, not pressure you.

Read our practical guide on setting boundaries with support workers and learn what healthy, respectful support should look like.

🚨 Has your NDIS provider increased their rates?

Before you panic, pause and check what it actually means for your plan.

The 2025/26 NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits are now in effect, which means some support costs may look different this year. But here’s the important part: a price increase should still be clear, fair, and explained properly.

Before agreeing to new rates, ask:

✅ Is this within the current NDIS price limits?
✅ Has my service agreement been updated?
✅ Will this affect how long my funding lasts?
✅ Do I still feel comfortable with the value of the support I’m receiving?

You deserve transparency, choice, and control over your supports.

At Re.Connect Support Services, we help participants understand their options, review changes, and feel more confident navigating their NDIS plan.

Feeling unsure about your current NDIS plan manager?

You are allowed to make a change. 💙

If you are dealing with slow invoice processing, poor communication, unclear budget reports, unexplained fees, or simply feeling unsupported, it may be time to look at other options.

Changing NDIS plan managers does not have to be complicated. The key steps are:

Choose your new plan manager
Notify your current plan manager
Contact the NDIS or your LAC
Finalise outstanding invoices
Update your providers with the new details

Most importantly, changing plan managers does not change your NDIS funding, your goals, or your approved supports.

Our latest blog walks you through the process step by step, so you can feel more confident, informed, and in control of your plan.
