About Kind Freedom Australia
Kind Freedom Australia is a disability support and rehabilitation organisation committed to helping people live independently, confidently, and with dignity. We work with individuals living with physical disabilities, neurological conditions, mobility challenges, rehabilitation needs, and other disability-related support requirements — through NDIS, TAC, private arrangements, rehabilitation pathways, and other funding options.
Professional disability support funded the way that works for you
We're a disability support service provider first. Funding is simply how you access our support — whether that's NDIS, TAC, private, insurance, family or hospital and rehab pathways.
NDIS participants
Self-managed or plan-managed plans, with all supports priced to the NDIS Pricing Arrangements.
TAC participants
Transport Accident Commission clients accessing community access, attendant care and recovery support.
Private participants
Pay-as-you-go support — no plan required. Hourly rates and transparent service agreements.
Self-funded clients
Clients funding their own support directly, with full flexibility over hours and worker matching.
Families
Families coordinating support for a loved one — we keep you in the loop and respect every household routine.
Hospital discharge support
Bridging the gap between hospital and home — handover and in-home support within 24–48 hours where needed.
Rehabilitation programs
Continuity of allied health goals after rehab discharge — therapy practice, mobility retraining and daily living support.
Insurance-funded participants
Work-cover, life-insurance and other insurer-funded packages — invoiced directly to your case manager.
Aged participants living with disability
Older adults living with disability who need professional, person-centred support to keep living independently at home.

Founder & Director · Cert IV Allied Health Assistance
Edson Rushenya — Founder & Director
Edson started Kind Freedom because he kept noticing a specific gap in the sector, participants with physical and neurological conditions who were receiving perfectly adequate support for daily tasks, but no one was qualified to help them practise what their physiotherapist or OT had prescribed.
What that looks like in practice: guided exercise routines, mobility practice, assistive equipment support, rehabilitation reinforcement, and progress note-keeping that goes back to your treating clinician.
What Allied Health Assistance is, and is not
Edson implements programs that are prescribed and supervised by registered allied health professionals (physiotherapists, OTs, speech pathologists). He does not assess, diagnose, or design therapy. His role is to close the practice gap, so the work your clinicians prescribe actually happens in your home, with correct technique, every week.
Our Values
Four words that define how we show up, but in the choices we make every single session.
Kindness
Support that feels human, not clinical. On hard days, in difficult moments, when things don't go to plan. Patience is not an extra we offer on good days. It is the baseline.
Freedom
You set the priorities. A support worker's job is to expand what you can do, not substitute for what you are still capable of doing yourself. We build independence, not dependency.
Respect
We ask before we touch, explain before we act, and listen before we respond. Your home, your body, your decisions. Every choice is yours, we are here to support it.
Quality
Credentialled, screened, and clinically aware. We hold ourselves to the standard your body and your support goals actually require, not the minimum that satisfies a shift roster.
Provider Status & Participant Rights
Kind Freedom Australia operates as an unregistered NDIS provider. This means we work with participants whose plans are either self-managed or plan-managed. Unregistered status does not mean unqualified, it means we choose flexibility in how we deliver care without the additional administrative overhead required for registration.
Every worker on our team meets the requirements of the NDIS Code of Conduct, holds current NDIS Worker Screening clearance, a Working with Children Check, and First Aid & CPR certification. We follow the NDIS Pricing Arrangements 2025–26 and provide a written service agreement before any support begins.
If you ever have a concern about the support you receive, you can raise it with us directly or contact the NDIS Quality & Safeguards Commission on 1800 035 544. Your right to switch providers, raise complaints, or request changes to your support is protected at every stage.
Follow 3 Easy Steps To Begin
A conversation, a plan, and support that starts.
Make an Enquiry
Call us or send a message. Tell us your condition, your goals, and what has, or hasn't, worked with other providers. We will be honest about whether we are the right fit before you commit to anything.
Match & Plan Together
Our People & Culture Team carefully reviews your referral, support goals, funding arrangements, and individual needs before matching you with the most suitable support worker — building a schedule around what you are actually trying to achieve, not a standard package.
Begin Your Support
Visits start on schedule. Your goals are tracked. Your clinical team is kept in the loop. And you have direct contact with our team — not an ordinary call centre — whenever something needs to be adjusted.
