What We Do
Service Options
At Devoted Supports, we specialise in delivering ‘recovery-focused’ supports that help participants with neurodiversity, mental health issues and complex behaviours become more resilient to live their best lives.
We recognise that every NDIS participant is unique, and we are committed to tailor supports to suit individual needs.
Our care plans are developed in partnership with our clients to ensure participant services are both person-centred and solutions focused.
Core Support
Core supports are those services that are aimed at assisting participants with daily life and accessing the community.
Some examples of core supports include, helping with daily living skills, increasing independence, building relationships, managing appointments, or assisting with overnight support needs.
Our Devoted staff are dedicated to working with participants to meet their individual needs.
Respite/Short Term Accommodation (STA)
STA including Respite, under the NDIS is where a person with a disability has a short stay away from home, giving them the chance to try new things, make friends and learn valuable skills. It also gives parents or carers a short break from their caring role.

At Devoted Supports we can work out flexible arrangements for participants to enjoy an STA/Respite at various locations across Brisbane city, including the Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast, when available.
