Short Term Accommodation, which includes respite care, is a form of assistance that provides temporary housing when the participant must temporarily reside away from home. When the need for Short Term Accommodation is directly related to a participant’s disability, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding under the Core Supports budget category. This NDIS-funded support is beneficial to both the participant and their carers because it provides a temporary break from their daily routine.
SupportNest is committed to providing participants with a safe experience during their time away from home. Our staff will be available around-the-clock to assist you, and you can communicate your needs to them. If you do not wish to stay in a different location, we can also provide support in your home so that your carers can take a break.
Why is STA support important?
- You need to leave the house to run errands without leaving your loved one behind.
- You are going on vacation and want to know that a loved one will be cared for properly.
- You need time away to de-stress and care for yourself in order to continue providing care for your loved one.
- If you become ill or injured, your loved one requires emergency relief.
NDIS short-term accommodation is significant for a number of reasons. By engaging in social and community-based activities, it enables individuals to exercise a greater degree of choice and control. Moreover, establishing relationships with individuals who share similar interests. At SupportNest respite programmes, we have witnessed individuals forming genuine friendships or finding companionship with one another.
