KIT FAQ'S

Let's get down to the nitty-gritty of emergency preparedness.

Are these resources eligible for NDIS or Aged Care (HCP/CHSP) funding?

Our Disability & Aged Care Emergency Range are designed to align with NDIS plans and are eligible for purchase under Aged Care Home Care Packages (HCP) and Commonwealth Home Support Program (CHSP) funding.

As this pack includes disability-specific emergency resources (such as communication cards, a tailored emergency plan and easy read material), it can be claimed under the following:

NDIS

  • Consumables – Assistive Products for Personal Care & Safety (low to mid cost AT)

Aged Care (HCP & CHSP)

  • Goods, equipment and assistive technology (GEAT) funding that covers personal safety, communication, medication management and independence supports.

If you or someone you care for is funded under NDIS, HCP, or CHSP, these packs can usually be claimed as part of your support plan. Speak with your plan manager, provider, or case worker about purchasing your kit using your funding, or simply complete the funding information in your cart before to include all required details on your invoice for Self-Managed plans.

Is this pack a GST-free medical aid or appliance?

Our Disability & Aged Care Emergency Range are classified as composite supplies of GST-free medical aids and appliances under Schedule 3 of the GST Act 1999.

This pack includes:

  • Communication cards – listed in Schedule 3 as GST-free aids for people with disabilities.
  • Disability-specific emergency plan (easy read), emergency contacts, and preparedness checklist, tailored for people with additional needs.

The Complete Care Kit and Easy Evac Care Kit also include sensory regulation earmuffs (aids for sensory needs).

Because the dominant purpose of these kits is to provide GST-free disability supports, all other included emergency items are considered ancillary. As a result, the entire pack is GST-free.

When's the best time to get an emergency kit?

Yesterday! Organising your supplies in the face of an emergency is not only stressful, but can often be impossible due to panic-buying, supply shortages, or simply not knowing what products you need or where to find them.

The old saying goes: 'failure to be prepared is being prepared to fail'. Well, failure is not an option in an emergency. There are no do-overs and your life may truly depend on your ability to prepare.

EMERGENCY KIT STORAGE TIPS
  • Store your kit in a place that’s easy to reach, even in a blackout.
  • Everyone should know where it is at all times, and be able to grab it quickly and safely.
  • Replace anything expired, used, or weather-damaged.
Is the disability-specific emergency plan suitable for bushfires, storms, or floods?

Absolutely. This emergency plan is designed to help you prepare for common Australian emergencies including smoke, loss of power, shelter-in-place situations, or urgent evacuations.
