Under the NDIS, Short Term Accommodation (STA) replaces what used to be called respite for people with a disability.
STA is a support where someone with a disability has a short stay away from their home. This gives you the chance to try new things, make friends and learn skills. It also gives your family or carers a short break from their caring role.
Our STA properties are a home away from home for people with a disability!
A stay with us gives you the chance to meet new people, try new things and recharge. Our team take care of all your support needs too so you can sit back and relax.
STA means your family or carer can get some time to unwind too. It’s a win-win for you both!
Like respite, our STA services can give you the chance to meet new people and try new activities.
This can be seeing the latest movie, going out for a meal, going to the beach, checking out a local attraction, or playing your favourite sport.
No matter your age or tastes – there’s something for you.

Short Term Accommodation is funded under Core Supports – Assistance with Daily Life in your NDIS plan.
If you need longer term accommodation, other options such as Supported Independent Living are more likely to be included in your plan.
Please note: We bill in line with the NDIS Price Guide, which generally increases annually.
