What is Short Term Accommodation or respite accommodation?
Disability Short Term Accommodation is one of the home and living supports the NDIS might fund for NDIS participants.
Short Term Accommodation, including respite accommodation, is funding for support and accommodation for a short time away from your usual home.
You might have a short stay with other people, or by yourself. It’s often funded when your usual carers and supports aren’t available, or for you to try new things.
It can also be used for respite to support you and your carers to take a short break.
What is Medium Term Accommodation (MTA)?
Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is one of the home and living supports the NDIS might fund for NDIS participants.
It is funding for somewhere to live if you can’t move into your long-term home because your disability supports aren’t ready. The NDIS only includes it in your plan as part of your other home and living support needs. It generally funds MTA for up to 90 days.
Support Coordinators Australia supports people with disabilities to live in the way that best suits them.
We make sure you receive a personalised experience with Support Coordinators Australia Individualised Living Options (ILO) service. This means we work closely with you, and your family or support people to make sure we understand your living needs and goals.
What are Individualised Living Options (ILO)?
Individualised Living Options (ILO) is one of the home and living supports the NDIS might fund for NDIS participants.
It is funding to support you to make choices about where you live, who you live with, and how you want to be supported.
Why should I choose ILO?

This support is designed to give you a sense of home and belonging, and to build independence. You can decide who you live with, and how they and your family, friends or community support you.
