What do others think about the I-CAN?

While the I-CAN assessment tool (The Instrument for the Classification and Assessment of Support Needs) is a validated and tested assessment tool, we are concerned about its potential use in the context of the NDIS as a standalone tool.

This change by the NDIA undermines the ability for psychologists – and other professionals – to work with participants to ensure that NDIS supports are appropriate and best placed to contribute to building a person's capacity, and increasing their independence and participation in the community.

The NDIS assessment process needs to be fit for purpose and consistent with the principles of the Scheme, which is to promote participants’ choice and control.

Any assessment process that attempts to be a ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution often overlooks details which can be very important for individual NDIS participants.

We are continuing to call on the Government to engage actively, meaningfully and transparently with psychologists, the APS, and other allied health professionals in designing and implementing reforms to the NDIS.

The holidays look and feel different for everyone, and that’s something to celebrate. 💚
We focus on making our Christmas activities accessible and low-stress, so people can participate in the way that suits their needs and preferences.
Whether that means a quiet corner, shorter activities or sensory-friendly options, inclusion is always at the heart of what we do.

Participants, families and staff have worked together this year to build a supportive environment where everyone belongs and can be themselves.
We are so grateful for the trust, teamwork and positive energy that shine through in moments like this.

Santa has elves, we have support workers. 🎅

Between last‑minute shopping trips, Christmas movie marathons and snack runs, the Magnus team is definitely on the “nice list” for effort.

If Christmas had a roster, our crew would be on the “making it all actually happen” shift.​

Our admin team is out here juggling rosters, invoices and… tinsel logistics. 🎄

If you’ve ever tried scheduling supports around Christmas parties, you know it deserves its own medal.

Powered by coffee, carols, crackers and a slightly concerning number of spreadsheets, we’re getting everyone where they need to be.​
