MTA (Medium Term Accommodation)

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is short-to-medium term housing support for participants in need of transitional support. This is typically in response to waiting for permanent housing or a need to find a secure place to live until you get used to a new phase of life. With MTA, you get a friendly, warm home in which to build up your independence and gain access to services you need. Whether you are transitioning on from a hospital, home, or existing accommodation arrangement, you feel looked after during this time of transition.

STA (Short Term Accommodation)

Short Term Accommodation (STA) is perfectly suitable for anyone in need of short-term accommodation, a weekend getaway, a vacation, or a new scene. STA allows you to enjoy a short-term stay in a self-contained house with support you require. It’s a wonderful option if you require a rest in your usual routine, or you just need to get away to work on you.

Respite

The respite services give a break to carers and to families in a high-standard, short-term accommodation for participants. The respite also serves to help participants’ and support networks’ welfare be maintained. Our respite care is provided in a secure and caring condition, our staff ensuring that all of your needs are catered to when you stay. If you require a short period or a week of time-off, our respite services are provided in a flexible way that means you get to rest and get back to your usual routine refreshed.

What is Supported Independent Living?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) approved service that supports a person with a disability to live independently to their maximum potential. SIL is a combined support that consists of personal care, assistance with daily living, and other support to enable a person to live in their home or in residential accommodation. The objective of SIL is to provide just enough support to enable each person to live independently to their maximum potential.

SIL services enable a person’s life skills, to enable safety, and to enable a person’s health, all in a manner that maximises a feeling of control. This can be helping to undertake basic day to day routines such as preparing meals, house work, and shopping, or providing more complex support such as managing medications and personal care.

Each person accessing SIL services has a support team to work alongside to design a personalized plan that is centered around their goals, preferences, and needs. The services can be adjusted over time to meet changing needs. SIL services enable a person to live a fulfilling life, having more control over their life, yet having sufficient support to live safely and in comfort.
