Understanding Medium-Term Accommodation for NDIS Participants in Australia

For participants with disabilities, finding accommodation can be challenging, especially when you’re looking for medium-term options. Fortunately, the NDIS provides funding for such accommodation. However, there are limits to the funding, and you need to meet specific eligibility criteria to qualify. In this blog post, we’ll delve deep into medium-term accommodation for NDIS participants in Australia, discussing the funding limits, eligibility criteria, and other critical factors that you need to know.

Medium-Term Accommodation Funding

The NDIS only funds medium-term accommodation for up to 90 days to provide temporary housing for participants ready to move into their long-term home. If you require more extended care, you must explore other options that don’t involve NDIS funding, such as long-term rent. There may also be extra costs involved, such as home modifications and day-to-day living expenses as well as specialist disability accommodation, which doesn’t meet the NDIs funding criteria.

Eligibility Criteria

To qualify for medium-term accommodation, you must meet specific NDIS eligibility criteria. One of these is having a permanent or significant disability that requires home and living supports. You must also have an NDIS plan that includes accommodation funding for up to 90 days. Similarly, your local area coordinator (LAC) should recommend medium-term accommodation as the best option considering your immediate needs. If you don’t meet the NDIS funding criteria, you can stay in medium-term accommodation but at your expense.

Other Factors to Consider

Aside from funding and eligibility criteria, there are other critical factors to consider before settling for medium-term accommodation. These include finding the right accommodation that provides the right level of support for your disability and meets your day-to-day living requirements. You’ll also want to liaise with your LAC or support coordinator to identify the best locations for minimal disruption to your routines, families, and social life.

Please Contact

If you have any questions about medium-term accommodation funding, please contact your LAC or support coordinator. They are best placed to provide guidance and support regarding the application process and sourcing suitable accommodation. You can also reach us here, and we will guide you on the right path.
