A short email or call is enough. Who lives in the house, who is providing daily care now, what is working, and what is starting to strain.
02
We check fit with the plan and our capacity
We look at whether the respite arrangement you are thinking about is one Noon Care can support well, given the participant's NDIS plan and our current availability in Melbourne's north.

We say what we can support, what we cannot, and what a realistic next step looks like. Nothing is booked until the arrangement genuinely makes sense.
