The Problem

What Most NDIS Core Support Providers Get Wrong

Almost every provider claims to offer core supports. Very few actually deliver them the way they were designed to work.

The truth is, most participants who come to us have experienced at least one of these:

  • Support workers who don't show up, or show up late with no notice
  • A different worker every week, so you're constantly re-explaining your needs
  • Core support budgets that run out mid-year because no one tracked the spending
  • Providers who disappear when you need them most, like on weekends or after hours
  • Zero transparency about where your NDIS funding is actually going

This is not what core supports NDIS was designed to be. You deserve better, and at Mango Care, we deliver it.
