• Call us on 1300 225 369.

How we handle complaints

Our approach is to:

• Take action straight away if it appears that there is a high risk of harm, neglect or abuse.
• Tell you we have received your complaint within the next business day after we receive it.
• Contact you or your representative within two business days to talk about your complaint. We may ask you for more information to help us better understand it.
• Work with you to decide how we should respond to the complaint within five business days of the complaint being made.
• Resolve 90% of complaints within 21 days of receiving it. More complex complaints may take longer to address.
• Keep you informed about the progress of your complaint at every stage.

What happens if I’m not satisfied with the complaint outcome?

If you submit a complaint with Able Australia and you are not happy with how it has been resolved, you can then escalate the issue. You may speak to the NDIS Quality and Safeguarding Commission or the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission after you have tried to resolve the issue with Able.
