NDIS Smart Watch & Personal Alarms

Your 4GX SureSafe Personal Alarm using NDIS

The NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) is a national support program that provides targeted support and better coordination and access to services for people living with a disability. This national approach means that participants can access support and services that relate to their disability-related needs, goals and plan.

At SureSafe, our goal is to provide high-quality 4GX personal alarms that support safety, independence and confidence. Depending on the participant’s plan, disability-related needs and purchasing requirements, a personal alarm may be purchased using NDIS funding as low-cost assistive technology or through relevant consumables funding.

If your NDIS goals involve independence, safety or social participation, a SureSafe personal alarm may help support those goals. Funding depends on your plan and whether the product is considered reasonable and necessary for your disability-related needs.

Call our friendly staff on 1300 739 991 to discuss personal alarms for NDIS participants, including NDIS smart watch options and SOS Watch devices. If you are a support coordinator, plan manager or support provider, please send us an email or give us a call. We can provide product information, quotes and invoices to help with self-managed or plan-managed purchases.

Using NDIS Funding for a Personal Alarm

NDIS funding may be used for a personal alarm where the device relates to the participant’s disability support needs, goals and plan requirements. Approval depends on the participant’s plan, how the plan is managed and whether the support is considered reasonable and necessary.

SureSafe can help by providing product information, quotes and invoices for self-managed or plan-managed participants. A support coordinator, plan manager or other provider may also help confirm the right purchasing process for the participant’s plan.

What Information May Be Needed

The information needed can vary by plan and funding pathway. In many cases, the participant, family member, support coordinator or plan manager may need to confirm:

  • the participant’s NDIS goals and disability-related needs
  • how the device supports independence, safety or social participation
  • whether the device should be purchased through low-cost assistive technology or another suitable funding category
  • whether a quote, invoice or supporting product information is required

Personal Alarms and NDIS Participants

A personal alarm can help some NDIS participants feel safer at home or while out in the community. SureSafe devices include features such as SOS alerts, GPS location, two-way voice communication and fall detection, which may support people who need a simple way to request help.

The right device depends on the person’s needs, daily routine and support network. Some people prefer a watch, while others prefer a pendant-style alarm. Our team can explain the differences before you choose.
