Q&A
1. What are respite services under the NDIS?
Respite services provide temporary relief for primary carers by offering short-term care for the participant in a safe and supportive environment.
2. What types of respite options are available?
Options include in-home respite, centre-based respite, and community-based overnight stays. Affective Care tailors services to participant and carer needs.
3. Who benefits from respite care?
Both carers and participants benefit—carers get time to recharge, and participants have opportunities for social interaction and independence.
4. Is respite available for children with disability?
Yes. Affective Care offers age-appropriate respite for children, including engaging activities and support from qualified staff.
5. How can respite be funded through the NDIS?
It is typically funded under Core Supports in a participant’s plan. The support must relate to the participant’s goals and be considered reasonable and necessary.
