NDIS DIETETICS in Sylvania

How the NDIS helps you navigate nutrition

Many people do not realize that the NDIS can support dietetics as part of your capacity building goals. If your health impacts your ability to live independently, nutrition support is a vital tool.

At our Sylvania clinic, we use the Optimum Roadmap to ensure your funding is used effectively. We map out a plan that includes your consultations and our team case conferences. Because our dietitians talk to our other therapists, your nutrition plan will always support your physical or communication goals. We handle the funding complexity so you can focus on building the skills you need for a more independent life.
