NDIS Resources, Guides & Tools
Free, practical tools and plain-English guides shared across Wise Healthcare and Magnum Support Services — plus free interpreting through TIS National — to help participants, families and support workers understand and manage NDIS plans.
Tools and guides we share with Magnum Support Services
Wise Healthcare and Magnum Support Services operate under a shared team, and that extends to the resources we offer. Below you'll find interactive tools, plain-English NDIS guides, and language support — all hosted on the Magnum Support Services website and free for anyone to use, whether you're a current participant, planning your first NDIS plan, or supporting someone who is.
Each resource opens in a new tab on the Magnum Support Services website. You don't need an account to use them.
Who are these for?
- Participants checking what an item costs or whether it's in their plan budget.
- Families and carers wanting clear, respectful information about a disability.
- Support workers and coordinators looking up price limits and item numbers.
- Anyone who prefers to read about the NDIS in plain English, or in their own language.
