About MDS
Putting Participants First
What We Do
| At Melbourne Disability Services (MDS), we are a proud registered NDIS provider supporting people with disabilities to live independent, empowered, and meaningful lives, however they define success. We deliver person-centred, strengths-based support tailored to each participant’s goals, lifestyle, culture, and preferences. Every plan is thoughtfully designed to integrate seamlessly with daily life, offering flexible, responsive and effective services. | We also understand that the NDIS can be overwhelming to navigate. That’s why our dedicated team assists participants with understanding their plan, setting up schedules, and receiving consistent support on the days and times that suit them best. From first contact to everyday delivery, we’re by your side every step of the way. |
