    Our story

    A local south-east Melbourne provider, started to close a gap

    Care Together Services is a locally based NDIS provider supporting people across the south-east Melbourne corridor. It was founded by Muhammad Ali, who also built the software we use to run our rosters, worker checks and NDIS billing.

    “I started Care Together because I saw the gap between what people needed and what was being offered. We exist to close that gap — with heart, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to every person we serve.”Muhammad Ali, Founder & Director

    Questions

    Frequently asked questions

    Which areas does Care Together Services cover?

    We are based in south-east Melbourne and support people in Officer, Berwick, Narre Warren, Cranbourne, Drouin, Warragul and surrounding suburbs. Call 0409 383 353 to check your address.

    Do I need an NDIS plan to use your services?

    Yes, for NDIS-funded support you need an approved NDIS plan. If you are still applying, we can explain the steps and point you to the right NDIS contacts.

    Is Care Together Services a registered NDIS provider?

    Not yet. We have applied for registration with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission and are waiting for a decision. Until then we can support participants whose funding is plan-managed or self-managed, but not NDIA-managed.

    Do you work with self-managed and plan-managed participants?

    Yes. We support plan-managed and self-managed participants. NDIA-managed participants can only use registered providers, so we cannot support NDIA-managed plans until our registration is approved.

    Can I choose my own support worker?

    Yes. We match workers based on your goals, personality, language and culture. If a match is not right, tell us and we will find someone else.

    How quickly can support start?

    It depends on the support you need and worker availability. Call us on 0409 383 353 and we will give you an honest timeframe on the first call.

    What checks do your support workers have?

    Our workers hold an NDIS Worker Screening Check clearance, current First Aid and relevant disability training.

    Funding

    What is the difference between NDIA-managed, plan-managed and self-managed?

    NDIA-managed means the NDIA pays registered providers directly. Plan-managed means a plan manager pays invoices and tracks your budget. Self-managed means you pay providers and claim from the NDIS yourself. We currently support plan-managed and self-managed participants.
