Self management is a great option for those who NEED it, but that’s not always the case.
If you are hiring all your own staff, or managing your support workers then this could be great but for others, self-management isn’t always the best option. If you’ve tried it and are feeling overwhelmed, stressed and don’t know what you’re doing then it might be time to consider changing to plan-management.

You can also submit the ‘Request for plan management’ letter to your NDIS planner or LAC before, during or after this meeting.
You will need to ‘endorse’ a plan manager and let the NDIS know WHO you would like your plan manager to be in order for them to provider plan management supports.
