NDIS Participant First Your feedback can help improve the NDIS. NDIS is working to deliver a better experience for our consumers. The best way to do this is to listen to people with lived experience of disability and first-hand experience of the NDIS. That’s what Participant First is all about. Participant First is looking for participants, families, carers, and people within the disability community to share their views about the best ways to improve how they work. Receive a weekly invitation to provide feedback, including completing surveys, joining focus groups, or taking part in interviews. Some feedback opportunities are paid. You don’t have to take up any of these invitations if you don’t want to – you can just keep an eye on how we are working with participants. Your feedback is confidential and not added to your official NDIS participant record. If you change your mind, you can unsubscribe at any time. We are looking for a mix of participants, families, and carers who have different levels of experience with the NDIS. For more details, contact participant.engagement@ndis.gov.au or visit the website www.ndis.gov.au/community/have-your-say/participant-first-help-improve-ndis Brett Jones - NDIS client Vaccines Did you know, free influenza vaccines are available for the following people who are at greater risk of disease and developing complications if they get flu: • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 6 months and over • People aged 65 years and over Contact your doctor, local council, community health centre, Aboriginal health centre or an approved pharmacy. Did you know that you can get your COVID-19 vaccination the same time as the influenza vaccine? COVID-19 vaccines can be co-administered (that is, given on the same day). Studies show that co-administration of COVID-19 and influenza vaccines is safe and produces a good immune response. The COVID-19 vaccine does not protect against the flu, so you should still have your annual flu shot. Speak with your usual health care provider to see if this is right for you.
