When nursing support is needed
Many people manage diabetes independently. NDIS nursing support is usually considered when a disability — for example an intellectual disability, acquired brain injury or limited hand function — means someone cannot safely manage insulin or monitoring on their own.
Frequently asked questions
Does the NDIS fund diabetes nursing?
The NDIS may fund diabetes support where your disability affects your ability to manage it yourself. General diabetes care is usually funded through the health system. Ask your planner or Support Coordinator what applies to you.
Can support workers give insulin?
In some situations, trained support workers can assist with pre-filled insulin pens under a nurse-developed plan. A Registered Nurse assesses whether this is safe and provides training.
