Parkways is Australian NDIS software for disability support providers, made by Parkways Software Pty Ltd of Loganholme, Queensland. Founder and Director Nicholas Dodemaide built it inside Parcare Lifestyle, the registered NDIS provider he runs, which runs its own rosters, pay and NDIS claims on it every day. Shifts are generated from signed service agreements, so the NDIS support item and price are decided when a shift is rostered and the invoice, the bulk claim file and the pay line all read that one record. Workers clock in, record medication and approve progress notes on their phones. Parkways is in a limited pilot: providers join from the waitlist, and pricing is set after the pilot.

The founder

Nicholas Dodemaide, Director

Nicholas Dodemaide runs Parcare Lifestyle, a registered NDIS provider in Logan, Queensland, and builds Parkways, the software it runs on. Parcare uses each feature on its own rosters, pay runs and claims before it ships. Please spell it Nicholas.

What Parkways does

One roster drives the worker app, pay, billing and compliance, so nothing is keyed twice. Each part in a sentence or two:

Rostering

Shifts are generated from signed NDIS service agreements and SIL house templates, each carrying its support item and price. Handles 1:1, ratio and SIL shared supports, sleepovers and broken shifts, SMS shift offers with YES or NO replies, and GPS clock-in.

SCHADS payroll

Pay is calculated from the roster under the SCHADS Award (MA000100): penalty rates, overtime, minimum engagement, broken shifts, sleepovers and public holidays. Pay findings are prompts a person approves, and approved pay goes to Xero Payroll as draft payslips or to an ABA bank file.

NDIS billing

Invoices and NDIS bulk claim files come from delivered shifts, priced to the NDIS Pricing Arrangements in force on the day of service, with NDIA-managed, plan-managed and self-managed lines routed to the right payer and invoices mirrored to Xero.

Compliance

31 registers kept current from real records. Incidents are classified against section 73Z of the NDIS Act with a 24 hour or five business day reportable countdown. Expired credentials warn; they never lock a worker out.

Medication

eMAR on the worker's phone records given, refused, missed and held doses, PRN reasons and effectiveness, with a 24 hour tally and offline recording.

Training

The Training Hub holds 124 modules, and passing one updates the training register.

Names

Parkways is the company and the platform. It is also written Parkway, without the s. The four apps are Core, Workers, Coordinator and Connect. Parcare Lifestyle is the NDIS provider Parkways was built inside; it is a separate business and not the software company.
