About Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injury (SCI) results from damage to the spinal cord, causing partial or complete loss of sensory and motor function below the injury level. Injuries can be classified as paraplegia (affecting the lower body) or tetraplegia/quadriplegia (affecting all four limbs). The NDIS provides extensive support for people with SCI, including personal care, equipment, home modifications, and therapies.

Key NDIS supports for spinal cord injury

Critical NDIS supports for spinal cord injury include physiotherapy for rehabilitation and maintenance, occupational therapy for daily living and equipment prescription, support workers for personal care and community access, assistive technology (powered wheelchairs, vehicle modifications, smart home systems), specialist disability accommodation, and community nursing for ongoing health management.
