Breaking down Use of SC hours:

When you get a new plan, the SC budget has to last for the duration of the plan, whether that is 12 months, or 6 months etc. The planning of the use of the hours should be done using the following format. This is only a guide as complexity will determine the actual use of hours each month. When crisis occurs, we may need to return to NDIS for an Early Review, with a Change of Circumstances Report – to discuss with supervisor as soon as possible if this needs to happen.

Example:

Total SC Hours in Plan:	Month 1 to 2, use:	Month 3 to 9 use:	Month 10 Use:	Month 10-11 use:	Average hours per 12-month Plan:
25hrs	5hrs	1hr, 30 mins	1hr and 30mins	5hrs	2.08hrs per month, over the 12-mths:
