Making a complaint about your NDIS provider - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander

These Code of Conduct postcard resources have been created by the NIDS Quality and Safeguards Commission as part of the Participant Information Packs. These resources can be printed out to be given to NDIS service providers to act as a reminder that participants are protected by the NDIS Code of Conduct.

Where there are concerns about the quality or safety of NDIS provided services, these resources may be used to start a conversation about your concerns with the provider. If you are unhappy with the response you receive from the provider, or feel uncomfortable addressing your concerns with them directly, you can contact the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.
