Under the NDIS, temporary housing is available through Short Term Accommodation (STA): a temporary supported accommodation solution for a period of 2 to 6 weeks.Home Caring provides Short Term Accommodation for NDIS participants in Melbourne, so you can stay connected to the community rather than have a lengthy hospital stay or premature placement in an aged care facility.

Medium Term Accommodation in Melbourne

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is for NDIS participants who need temporary or transitional accommodation while they wait for their permanent home to become available, or to be built.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does disability accommodation cost?

If you are eligible, the cost of your disability accommodation in Australia can be subsidised by the Australian Government through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Having an NDIS plan can allow you to access the type of accommodation you need, such as different types of SDA, Medium Term or Short Term Accommodation.It’s important to note that the funding in your plan is used for housing, not the services or supports you receive in your home (that is covered by a different part of your plan). If you are just at the beginning of your NDIS journey or need help applying for accommodation funding through the NDIS, please get in touch. Our team is happy to walk you through the process, and chat to you about your needs.
For information on our current SDA, MTA, STA and other disability accommodation vacancies in Melbourne, please get in touch by calling 1300 875 375 or use the contact form on our website.

SDA for people with disability is divided into four different building types and four different design categories, based on what a person needs from a dwelling. The four different building types are apartments; duplexes, villas or townhouses; houses, and group homes.

The four different types of design categories are Improved Liveability (housing with a reasonable level of physical access provision); Robust Housing (homes designed to be very resilient); Fully Accessible (high level of physical access provision) and High Physical Support (high level of physical access provision for people with significant physical impairment, who require very high levels of support).

To be accredited as an SDA dwelling, housing for people with disability must meet design requirements determined and assessed by the NDIS. Different price limits are set by the NDIS, depending on the dwelling type and design category requirements. It’s always important to check that a home meets your needs before committing to a service agreement with the provider.

It depends on what support you need, how many people you would like to live with, and what type of building you would like to live in.When applying for funding from the NDIS, it’s also important to consider how a dwelling will:
  • help you access the other supports you need to live independently;
  • align with your individual goals under your NDIS plan;
  • suit your tastes – is it the type of home you want to live in?
  • help you get involved with the local community, pursue hobbies and stay connected to other people;
  • help you stay in touch with friends and family, maintain or create new relationships, and have your support network around you;
  • reduce any risks to yourself or other people.

Home Caring provides a range of disability accommodation in Melbourne and other locations around Australia.

The Australian Government has announced significant changes to the aged care system introducing the Support at Home program set to commence on 1 July 2025. This initiative aims to enhance support for older Australians enabling them to remain in their homes longer and receive more personalised care. Key Features of the Support at Home Program: • Reduced Wait Times: The program will shorten the waiting period for in-home aged care services ensuring timely assistance for those in need. • Tailored Support Levels: Support at Home introduces eight levels of ongoing care replacing the previous four, to better match individual needs. • No Caps on Cleaning and Gardening: Unlike previous programs there will be no annual caps on cleaning and gardening services allowing for more comprehensive support. • Care Management Cap: A 10% cap on care management costs will remain in place to maintain affordability. • Assistive Technology Access: The program will expedite access to assistive devices like walkers and wheelchairs enhancing mobility and independence. • Increased Support Funding: The maximum support level will rise from $61,000 to $78,000, providing more resources for those with complex needs. • Restorative and Allied Health Services: There will be a temporary funding boost for restorative and allied health services, aiding recovery and well-being. • Palliative Care Support: The program includes provisions for palliative care allowing older Australians to spend their final weeks at home surrounded by loved ones. Staged Implementation of Price Caps: Price caps on services will be phased in starting from 1 July 2026. For the first year providers will continue to set their own prices similar to the current Home Care Packages program. In early 2025, consultations will be held with older people, advocates, families, carers and the sector to ensure fair pricing and robust consumer protections during this transition. No Worse Off Principle: To protect existing Home Care Package recipients, the government has introduced the “No Worse Off” principle: • Grandfathering: Individuals approved for a Home Care Package as of 12 September 2024 will transition to the new system without financial disadvantage. • Fee Structure: If you were a full-rate pensioner paying no fees under your Home Care Package as of 12 September 2024, you will continue to pay no fees under Support at Home. If you were required to pay fees, you will pay the same or less under the new program. At Home Caring we are dedicated to supporting our older community members through these changes. We are committed to ensuring the financial safety and well-being of our clients providing personalised care that aligns with the new Support at Home program. Our team is here to assist you in navigating these updates, ensuring you receive the care and support you deserve. 🩵 For more detailed information please refer to the Department of Health and Aged Care’s consumer fact sheet: https://www.health.gov.au/resources/ publications/support-at-home-program-fact-sheet-changes-to-support-at-home-pricing-arrangements-for-older-people-families-and-carers?language=en

What an incredible way to wrap up the year! Yesterday Home Caring proudly co-hosted the Merry & Mingle event alongside our NSW RM Zoë and Hannah from the Connector Co team and it was nothing short of inspiring. Together we raised an incredible $1,300 for Lou’s Place, supporting women in need this festive season. This means around 20 women will receive vital support over Christmas—what a gift to be part of something so meaningful! The energy in the room was contagious and the heartfelt insights shared by Chris Mahoney from CM Wellness and Amy Dillon from Mynd & Me left us feeling empowered and inspired. Chris’s breathwork session reminded us all of the importance of mindfulness especially during this busy holiday period. It was also truly special to see so many familiar faces from across our Home Caring network with teams from Baulkham Hills, Sutherland Shire and Campbelltown coming together to show their support. The sense of community, compassion and connection in the room was a testament to the incredible people we work alongside every day. A huge thank you to everyone who attended, supported and donated - your generosity will leave a lasting impact 🩵 #SupportingCommunities #MindfulConnections #NDISWellness #WomenHelpingWomen #HolidayCareAndCompassion
