Your Best Life Disability and Health Services started as an incorporated association known as Sunshine Coast Children’s Therapy Centre more than 35 years ago. The first centre was built in Nambour and has been extended and renovated. Over those decades, it was funded by government grants to provide therapy to children with disabilities.
In 2015, the Board initiated an all encompassing transformation to become NDIS-ready as the NDIS was scheduled to roll-out on the Sunshine Coast for 2019. The incorporated association transformed into a company in 2017 and developed a new strategic direction and business capabilities to meet changing needs. The company was renamed as Your Best Life Disability and Health Services Ltd in 2020. During these transformative years, Your Best Life Disability and Health Services opened many new centres across the Sunshine Coast, Gympie, and Moreton Bay LGAs.
The company was registered to provide services to children under Helping Children with Autism (HCWA) and Better Start before those programs were replaced by the NDIS and ultimately terminated in 2021. For several decades, the company was also the regional provider of choice for community based disability services by the Department of Disability and Community Services and by the Department of Education under the Specialised Disability Supports in Schools (SDSS) programme.
The company now provides services under a range of funding streams including NDIS, Medicare, National Injury Insurance Scheme (NIIS), Veteran’s Affairs, North Coast Aboriginal Corporation for Community Health (NCACCH), Child Safety, private health funds, PHN Stepped Care (Mental Health Program), and a range of brokered services.
