The Relationship Between Personal Wellbeing, Choice and NDIS Individualised Planning and Support for People With Intellectual Disabilities
Background
Australia's National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funds individualised supports to increase choice and control. The relationship between NDIS individualised funding, outcomes for wellbeing and exercising choice and control for people with intellectual disability has been unclear.
Method
Adult NDIS participants with intellectual disability (N = 62) completed a longitudinal survey with validated instruments exploring personal wellbeing and choice.
Findings
Personal wellbeing scores were generally positive, with the mean comparable to that found for a similar population over a decade ago. High choice and control were evident for most individuals over everyday matters, but not key life decisions. Living environment and physical and/or mental and emotional health status were associated with the level of satisfaction with personal wellbeing and everyday choice and control.
Conclusions
There is need to better support people with intellectual disability to exercise choice and control over key life decisions and to address disparities in choice and wellbeing associated with living environment, physical and mental and emotional health and future security.
