Short
Term Accommodation
Being the
primary carer for a family member with disability is a physically, mentally and
emotionally taxing job. This is why sunshine
coast ndis Disability Services offers STA - Short Term Accommodation care
to families in the area. This service allows primary carers to take a break
while leaving their loved ones in the capable hands of disability support
workers.
STA, also
known as respite, is a type of disability housing and support that provides
temporary accommodation in another location for up to 14 days at a time, funded
through the Core budget of your NDIS plan. This can be a great way to try new
experiences or live somewhere different for a while, as well as give your usual
carers a well-deserved break.
Depending
on your needs, STA can include meals, access to the community, social activities
and much more. STA can also be an ideal place for participants to learn and
develop their skills in a range of areas such as cooking, cleaning and personal
care.

Independent Living
NDIS
sunshine coast funded Supported Independent Living, or SIL, is a form of
disability housing and support that empowers individuals to live a dignified
life in their own home or shared accommodation. It includes tailored assistance
with daily tasks, such as personal care, meal preparation, and transportation.
It also provides skills-building opportunities and care coordination to foster
independence.
You can
access SIL through your NDIS plan by choosing it as one of the Core Supports in
your Individualised Plan. Most people who access SIL choose to live in group
homes with other NDIS participants, but you can also receive it while living
alone.
When
finding a Sunshine Coast SIL provider, make sure that they are registered with
the NDIA and meet NDIS quality standards. They should offer a variety of home
options and be able to accommodate your individual needs. They should also be
able to assist you with obtaining reports and providing evidence that you are
eligible for SIL.

accommodation (SDA). This is a type of support that provides purpose-built or

coordinator.
