Whether you need crisis accommodation on the same day or are transitioning into a Supported Independent Living (SIL) home, our NDIS Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) and Short-Term Accommodation (STA) services provide essential support. These temporary housing solutions offer much-needed relief for participants and families when required, ensuring a safe and structured environment during times of change. With personalised care plans and tailored services, our MTA and STA options help individuals maintain stability and continuity while navigating life’s transitions.
STA is available for 1 to 28 days and can be ideal for:
MTA, lasting from 29 to 90 days, is specifically designed to help participants transition between different living arrangements.
Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) provides essential support for participants who need extended care during transitions between living arrangements. It acts as a bridge for individuals moving from hospitalisation back into the community, transitioning between different care levels, or awaiting more permanent housing solutions. During these critical periods, MTA ensures stability and continuity of care, offering a supportive environment where participants can access necessary assistance.
Typically lasting between 29 and 90 days, NDIS Medium Term Accommodation gives participants time to adjust to their new circumstances and develop the skills required for independent living or transitioning to alternative care. During their stay, participants have access to personalised services such as:
One of the key benefits of MTA is the stability it provides during times of change. By offering a structured and supportive environment, MTA helps reduce the stress and anxiety often associated with transitions. It promotes a smoother adjustment process, empowering individuals to regain independence while feeling secure and supported.
NDIS Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) also alleviates pressure on caregivers and family members by providing a temporary NDIS-supported solution. This ensures that loved ones receive the care they need, allowing families to focus on other responsibilities. The NDIS continuity of care during transitions is essential for achieving positive outcomes for both participants and their families.
At Apex Support Services, we understand the importance of support during challenging times. Our NDIS Medium Term Accommodation, along with Short Term Accommodation (STA), offers participants the assistance they need to navigate difficult transitions with confidence. Whether you’re seeking temporary relief during a crisis or preparing for a permanent living arrangement, MTA plays a vital role in fostering independence, health, and well-being.
