NDIS Short Term Accommodation

Short Term Accommodation and Assistance:

From time to time, participants may require temporary supports that are different from their usual arrangements. These are non-typical days and may include short stays in a group-based facility (short term accommodation), or the purchase of additional in-home support.

Short term accommodation’ price limit includes all expenses in a 24 hour period including assistance with daily personal activities, accommodation, food and negotiated activities. Typically, this type of support would be used for short periods of up to 14 days at a time. For longer-term arrangements, other options are likely to be more appropriate (e.g. Supported Independent Living).

Short term accommodation price limits vary according to the support needs of the participant and the day of the week the support is provided.
