Accommodation with complex support (SDA)
Some people may need to live in a dwelling that is purpose-build for complex support, so you can be safe and cared for while enjoying independence.
The NDIS provides SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) for eligible participants. This is a type of accommodation built for people who have complex care needs due to extreme functional impairment, and require high levels of support.
SDA homes are designed to provide complex care solutions in a warm and friendly environment that is connected to the community. They can include accessibility features such as:
