Communication and Information Equipment
Nationwide Asset Management is a registered NDIS provider specialising in high-quality, reliable Communication and Information Equipment. We help NDIS participants across Australia access the tools they need to communicate effectively, access information, participate in daily activities, and connect with family, friends, and their community.
Our nationwide team provides expert assessment, supply, customisation, installation, training, and ongoing support for a wide range of assistive technology solutions tailored to individual goals and NDIS plans.
Why Communication and Information Equipment Matters
Effective communication is fundamental to independence, relationships, education, employment, and social participation. For many people with disability, standard devices and methods can present barriers. NDIS-funded equipment under Registration Group 0124 removes these barriers by providing personalised solutions that match your communication style, sensory needs, and lifestyle.
Whether you need support for speech, hearing, vision, cognitive processing, or technology access, the right equipment can transform how you interact with the world. At Nationwide Asset Management, we focus on solutions that are durable, easy to use, and future-proof, helping you achieve your NDIS goals with confidence.
What is Covered Under NDIS 0124 – Communication and Information Equipment?
This registration group includes a broad range of assistive products and supports, such as:
Our Range of Communication Solutions
High-Tech AAC Solutions
Dedicated speech-generating devices from leading manufacturers, eye-tracking systems for hands-free communication, and tablet-based systems with robust cases and mounting options. Ideal for individuals with complex communication needs, cerebral palsy, autism, motor neuron disease, or acquired brain injury.
Hearing and Listening Technology
Advanced assistive listening devices that work in noisy environments, classrooms, meetings, or public spaces. We supply and support FM systems, induction loops, and direct audio input solutions that integrate with hearing aids or cochlear implants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is Communication Equipment covered under my NDIS plan?

We provide ongoing maintenance, repair services, and support for warranty claims or NDIS plan variations.
