Elcies provides evidence-based Positive Behaviour Support and Speech Pathology. It is a service provided by Lutheran Care. The service was borne out of the recognition that there was a suite of NDIS supports (and registration groups) that have synergies with its Lutheran Care's existing suite of services and "hub" service model. Lutheran Care engaged HealthQ to develop a business model and support the NDIS registration of the new disability business.
Our approach to supporting NDIS registration and re-certification included:
Initial desktop review & risk assessment
Review of NDIS policies & procedures
Compliance sampling and testing
Findings & actions workshop
Management of actions and improvements
Team pre-audit briefing ("what to expect" workshop)
Attendance at audit
The business case and strategy were approved by the Board, and Elsie's disability became a NDIS registered provider in 2021. HealthQ has been asked back to support the mid-term audit and the 2024 re-certification, all of these completed without non-conformities being raised.
You’re a life saver, thank you HealthQ. Our audit report has been returned and we have passed with flying colours!
