Strong partnerships lead to better participant outcomes.
Brain Buddy works collaboratively with healthcare professionals, Support Coordinators, educators and community organisations to provide evidence-based Positive Behaviour Support, Psychology and Early Childhood Intervention for NDIS participants.
Referrals are an important first step in connecting NDIS participants with support that aligns with their individual needs, goals and circumstances. At Brain Buddy, we aim to make the referral process clear and straightforward for participants, families and the professionals supporting them.
We work collaboratively with a growing network of social workers, healthcare professionals, field officers, schools and early childhood educators to provide coordinated care and help participants work towards positive outcomes.
Brain Buddy accepts referrals from a broad range of professionals and organisations involved in supporting children, adults and families. We value the knowledge and insights referrers bring and recognise the important role they play in connecting participants with the right support.
Our team provides clear communication throughout the referral process and works collaboratively with referrers and support networks, where appropriate, to promote continuity and coordinated care.
Brain Buddy accepts referrals across our three core service areas. Referrals can be tailored to the participant's individual needs, NDIS goals and circumstances, with our team helping to determine the most appropriate pathway for support.
