About this resource

Scope and limitations
An editable template and practical record. It is not legal advice and does not by itself show that a provider meets the NDIS Practice Standards. Check it against the current Practice Standards, NDIS rules, your registration groups and your state or territory's laws, and adapt it to how your service really works.
Research basis
Registered NDIS providers are assessed against the Core Module of the NDIS Practice Standards. The quality indicators expect documented systems that are used in practice, not only written down. This document is organised around those indicators; using it does not by itself demonstrate compliance. Specialist disability accommodation providers must meet the SDA Conditions Rule and the SDA module of the Practice Standards, including agreements that follow tenancy law, managed conflicts of interest, vacancy processes, well-maintained dwellings and documented arrangements with SIL providers.
