Short-term accommodation (STA) in the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) in Australia refers to temporary accommodation for people with disabilities who require support with daily living activities and are unable to live in their own homes for a period of time. This could be due to various reasons such as respite care, a change in the person’s circumstances, or a need for rehabilitation. The NDIS funds short-term accommodation for people with disabilities as part of its focus on providing flexible and individualized support. The type and level of support provided in short-term accommodation varies depending on the needs and goals of the person with a disability.
