NDIS TRANSPORT AND COMMUNITY ACCESS
Supported Travel That Keeps You Connected
Holistic Care NSW provides NDIS transport assistance and community access support for participants who need help travelling safely and taking part in everyday activities. This is a disability support service, not a taxi or public passenger transport service. A support worker may assist before, during and after the journey, including mobility support, appointment attendance, shopping, communication and community participation, according to the participant’s support plan.
We support NDIS participants across Parramatta, Western Sydney and the wider Sydney metropolitan area.

During planning we may review
Destination, timing, activity length and return arrangements
Mobility aids, wheelchair access and transfer requirements
Support needed before, during and after the journey
Communication, behaviour, health and emergency information
Vehicle suitability, restraint requirements and staffing availability
Booking confirmation, contact arrangements and documentation
