How we rank providers

Rankings in Essendon are based on real outcomes between providers and families on our platform. They are recalculated daily and cannot be purchased or influenced by advertising.

  • How this list is built. Providers shown here are registered with the NDIS for Communication and Information Equipment and Assistive Products for Personal Care and Safety, or offer communication equipment, related disability and aged care services, and allied health. Generalist providers who only mention this service in passing are excluded, so the list reflects genuine, demonstrated capability.
