Sharing a Testimonial

Hi Everyone,   Here’s a progress update on how we are helping disability service providers.  In this instance we assisted a  new entrant to set up their operation. If you recall my blogs in February 2021, my focus now-a-days is to give my clients the best possible experience with a holistic approach to their needs. Well, I was able to do just this with Diligent Disability Care and was gratified by their response which I’d like to share with you.    “Diligent Care is a new disability care provider, and we utilised the services of Janaki Ramachandran of Facilitrade to develop all policy documents to support our application for NDIS registration. Facilitrade also assisted us with the Self-Assessment, completed and submitted our application to NDIS and also helped us in selecting and appointing a suitable auditor.   Thanks to the excellent and efficient work done by Janaki we were able to get through the audit in record time and were successful in our application.   We would like to recomm

The Controversial NDIS Independent Assessments and More

Don't Be Left out of NDIS!

  Don't Be Left out of NDIS! What's news at Facilitrade? It's been a busy but fulfilling April for us. We've seen a few providers, new and existing, through their NDIS registration process and certification audits.  The highlight was preparing a key client to face three different compliance audits within a week, for their core module and two complex modules. We are proud to claim that after we ran them through a comprehensive internal audit and several briefings, they ended up with a 100% audit success - no dreaded "non-compliance" issues! Under our business advisory services, we helped Cosmic Health Care to set up in business and are in the process of assisting them with their NDIS registration.  Attending the Source Kids Disability Expo was another highlight. It was a real eye opener to meet the exhibitors and understand the extensive range of products and services they had to offer for this category of people. I highly recommend these expos for all provide
