Under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), individuals with disabilities have the flexibility to choose from a range of accommodation options that suit their preferences and needs. One of the key benefits of the NDIS is the ability to access a diverse range of accommodation support services.
Here are some of the options available under the NDIS:
- Shared living: This is where individuals with disabilities live with other people who also receive disability support. Shared living arrangements can be either staffed or non-staffed, depending on the needs of the individuals.
- Supported independent living: This type of accommodation support provides individuals with the opportunity to live in their own home while receiving assistance with daily tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, and personal care.
- Specialist disability accommodation: This is a type of accommodation specifically designed for people with complex needs who require a high level of support. Specialist disability accommodation is fully accessible and includes features such as hoists, wheelchair ramps, and other assistive technology.
- Transitional accommodation: This is a short-term accommodation option for individuals who are transitioning from one living arrangement to another.
