Acting against expert advice, the National Disability Insurance Agency cut her therapy hours by two-thirds and rejected funding for a $5,000 replacement ramp, with a delegate's written internal review ruling both were not "value for money" and suggesting unqualified support workers or family fill the gap.

“It is expected the disability support workers have appropriate qualifications and training to complete the role they have been employed to complete and assist you in implement [sic] exercise routine.”
