HOW IT WORKS
The Process
1
Initial Contact and Meeting Setup
Upon receiving an enquiry, we will promptly respond by calling or emailing the client to arrange a meeting.
Schedule a meeting for our Director Support Services to visit the client’s home and discuss their plan and requirements.
2
understanding your plan, needs & preferences
During the meeting, our Director Support Services will discuss the client’s plan, their specific needs, and preferences regarding support workers.
Complete an intake document to gather comprehensive information about the client, covering various questions.
3
paperwork processing & System Setup
Go through and sign necessary documents such as the Service Agreement, Share Consent, Homesite Safety Risk Assessment, and obtain a scan of the client’s NDIA Plan.
The client will receive our Information Folder, containing a Client Handbook, service overview brochure, and a feedback/complaints/compliments form.
4
Coordinator Assignment & Rostering
Once a Coordinator is assigned, they will access the client’s documents and contact them to arrange a meeting.
For additional support services, the Director Support Services will suggest suitable workers.
The rostering team will schedule shifts according to the client’s preferences and introduce the assigned workers.
What Our Clients Are
Saying About Our Services
Maria & Leo
Support Co-ordinationI (we, as I’m also talking on behalf of my brother Leo) cannot ever express enough what a difference you made to Henk’s life. We are extremely grateful. Gratitude for all of the work Kerrie did for me over the almost past year. Her professionalism, wonderful personality and helpfulness will be remembered life long. I also understand that there are other support workers out there that are excellent in their service delivery and have the right professional attitude as well. It's just a matter of finding one that fits. Thank you very much to you also for looking after me so kindly.

Support Co-ordinationThe team at GDS do so many things right! I love the excellent communication with the staff in the office. They take their time to pair support workers with participants which have similar interests to ensure both individuals get something out of their time with each other and can learn and grow together. GDS are always there to support participants through hard times and helping them to feel safe and valued. The best part of working for this company is the diverse work force free from discrimination which is so rare to find particularly in the disability industry.
