We work with referring providers to support safe, coordinated transitions from hospital, rehabilitation, or other care settings into the participant’s home environment.
Our team helps coordinate NDIS supports, connect participants with suitable providers, and ensure key services are arranged before and after discharge to reduce delays, gaps in care, and unnecessary stress for the participant, family, and wider care team.

NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support (H2H)
NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support (H2H) assists NDIS participants who are transitioning from hospital, rehabilitation, or other care settings back into the home or community. This stage often requires careful coordination across discharge planning, support services, equipment, housing, therapy, personal care, transport, and ongoing care arrangements.
Aus Care Community Services accepts referrals from hospitals, rehab teams, housing providers, corrections and justice services, community services, allied health professionals, support coordinators, and case managers.
Our role is to work with referring providers to bring these supports together into a clear, coordinated plan. We help reduce discharge delays, minimise gaps in care, and support a safe, structured transition before and after the participant leaves hospital.

Why Hospital Discharge Planning Matters
The transition from hospital to home is one of the most vulnerable stages in a participant’s journey. While the hospital environment provides structured care, returning home requires that same level of structure to be recreated through coordinated services.
Without proper planning, participants may experience:
- Delays in services starting after discharge
- Lack of appropriate supports in place
- Miscommunication between providers
- Increased risk of complications or readmission
Many of these issues arise not because supports are unavailable, but because they are not properly organised or coordinated in time.
We help reduce these risks by ensuring that everything is planned ahead of discharge and continues to operate smoothly once you return home. This allows you to focus on recovery, rather than trying to manage logistics during an already stressful time.

FAQs
What is NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support?
NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support (H2H) is a structured coordination service that helps participants safely transition from hospital care back into their home environment. It focuses on organising supports, aligning services with medical recommendations, and ensuring everything is in place before and after discharge. Rather than leaving participants to manage this process alone, it provides guidance and coordination to reduce risk, avoid delays, and support a smoother recovery.
Do you provide medical or in-home care services directly?
No, we do not deliver clinical care or in-home support services directly. Our role is to coordinate and connect you with appropriate service providers who deliver those supports. This ensures you receive care from the right professionals while we manage the structure, communication, and organisation behind your supports. This approach helps avoid confusion and ensures your services are properly aligned.
When should NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support be arranged?
Ideally, discharge support should be arranged before you leave hospital. Early planning allows enough time to organise providers, confirm availability, and prepare your home environment. Waiting until after discharge can result in delays, gaps in support, or rushed decisions. If discharge is happening quickly, we can still assist with urgent coordination, but planning ahead always leads to better outcomes.
Can you work with hospital staff and discharge planners?
Yes, we can work alongside hospital staff, discharge planners, and other healthcare professionals to ensure your NDIS supports align with medical recommendations. This helps bridge the gap between hospital care and home-based support, ensuring continuity. By coordinating with your care team, we can better understand your needs and organise supports that are appropriate for your recovery.
What types of services can be arranged after discharge?
Depending on your needs and NDIS plan, we can coordinate access to a range of services including personal care, in-home support, allied health therapies, behavioural support, and community participation. The exact combination of services will depend on your condition, recovery requirements, and goals. Our role is to ensure these services are not only available but properly structured and scheduled.
Is NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support covered under my NDIS plan?
NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support is generally delivered under Support Coordination if it is included in your NDIS plan. If you are unsure whether your plan includes this, we can help you review your funding and explain what is available. In some cases, additional supports may need to be discussed during a plan review depending on your situation.
Can you organise urgent or last-minute discharge support?
Yes, we can assist with urgent discharge situations where supports need to be arranged quickly. However, urgent cases can be more challenging due to provider availability and time constraints. Where possible, early planning is always recommended to ensure a smoother transition. Even in urgent situations, we focus on prioritising essential supports to reduce immediate risks.
What happens if my needs change after I return home?
It is common for needs to change after discharge as recovery progresses. We continue to provide coordination support to ensure your services can be adjusted accordingly. This may involve changing providers, modifying schedules, or increasing or reducing supports. Our goal is to ensure your plan remains flexible and responsive to your situation.
Do you support participants across all areas of Sydney?
Yes, we provide NDIS support coordination services across Sydney, including Western Sydney, Inner West, and surrounding regions. Our local knowledge allows us to connect participants with providers that are accessible and suitable within their specific area. This is especially important during discharge when timing and availability matter.
How do I get started with NDIS Hospital to Home Discharge Support?
The first step is to contact our team and discuss your current situation, including your discharge timeline and support needs. From there, we will review your NDIS plan, identify what supports are required, and begin coordinating services. Starting early gives you the best chance of a smooth and well-organised transition.
