Life is full of unexpected twists and turns, and sometimes we all need a break. For individuals living with a disability, a temporary change of environment can provide much-needed respite and support. That’s where Short-Term Accommodation (STA) comes in—a vital service available through the Core funding of your NDIS plan.
What is STA?
Short-Term Accommodation, or STA, is a temporary supported accommodation option that offers participants a chance to stay in a caring and supportive environment for up to six weeks. Think of it as a “home away from home,” where you can enjoy a change of scenery, meet new people, and try new activities, all while receiving the highest quality care and support.
Why Choose STA?
At Live and Learn Group, we believe that everyone deserves a nurturing and friendly environment, whether it’s for a weekend getaway or a few weeks. Our STA services are designed to offer you:
- A Caring Community: You’ll be surrounded by a friendly and welcoming environment where you can socialise and make new friends. It’s an opportunity to build connections and create lasting memories.
- Support for Your Independence: We’re here to assist you in developing the skills and confidence needed to make living in the community more sustainable. Whether it’s learning new skills or simply gaining more independence, STA is a stepping stone to a more empowered life.
- Respite for Your Carers: While you enjoy your stay, your usual support network can take a much-needed break. Whether it’s for holidays, work, or personal appointments, STA provides peace of mind, knowing that you are in safe hands.
When STA is Essential
Life can be unpredictable. There may be times when your regular carer is unavailable due to illness, a sudden change in circumstances, or other emergencies. During these times, our STA services ensure that you have access to safe and comfortable accommodation where your needs are met with the utmost care and compassion.
A Win-Win for Everyone
Short-Term Accommodation is more than just a place to stay; it’s an opportunity to recharge, grow, and explore new possibilities. It’s a chance for you to enjoy new experiences in a supportive environment, while your family or carers get the time they need to rest and rejuvenate.
At Live and Learn Group, we are committed to providing you with the best possible care and support. Whether it’s for a few days or several weeks, our STA services are here to ensure that you feel at home, even when you’re away from home.
