The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides direct funding to individuals with disabilities to access the support and services that they need to live a meaningful and independent life. Once an individual becomes an NDIS participant, the NDIS works closely with them to develop a personalised plan that aligns with the needs and goals of the participant. Participants can understand their plan and use it effectively with the help of a Support Coordinator. While accessing NDIS supports like Short-Term Accommodation, including respite, support coordinators can connect the participants with efficient STA service providers whose services best suit the needs of the participants.

Short-Term Accommodation, including respite (STA), is funded through the Core Supports budget and it enables the participants to stay at a place away from their home. It allows both the participant and their carers to take a short break from their normal routine and rejuvenate their minds. STA support ensures that the participants receive the necessary assistance and support while staying away from home. It is also an opportunity for the participants to explore new activities and expand their social circle. An efficient support coordinator can provide all the necessary information related to STA and help the participant figure out whether it’s the right support for them or not. They make it simple for the participants to understand and access STA services. They even act in the best interests of the participants while engaging with the service providers and ensure that the participants have a great respite experience.
