MIDCOAST Council has now formally transitioned the disability services delivered by MidCoast Assist to Ability Options.

In February the decision was made for MidCoast Assist to cease delivering ageing and disability services.

Council’s Director of Liveable Communities, Paul De Szell, said participants who wished to transfer to Ability Options had now done so.

“We are very pleased with the outcome for both participants and staff, as it has always been our aim to ensure continuity of services to our clients and participants,” Mr De Szell said.

“Ability Options have a long history of delivering disability services and I am pleased that we are able to transition our participants to such a high-quality service.”

Mr De Szell said the complete transition of aged care services to Kirinari Community Services was expected by early October.

“As was the case for the transfer of disability services, there will be no change to ageing services until clients are directly notified by MidCoast Assist of how the transition will work.”
