Accommodation & Living Support
for NDIS Participants
Introduction to Accommodation and Living Support
Support Point Support Coordination is dedicated to connecting and coordinating the right Accommodation and Living Support services that enable NDIS participants to have meaningful, independent, and connected lives. We know the correct place to live is essential to health, safety, and growth. A good accommodation provider should offer various services to accommodate different needs, such as independent living, supported shared housing, or short-term or transitional housing. They should provide every service with care, professionalism, and a strong commitment to inclusion, choice, and respect.
Our Support Coordinators only source service providers that people trust. These providers must customise their service to fit each person’s needs, wants, and ambitions, ensuring participants live in a safe and supportive environment. Person-centred planning should be the heart of their approach. This ensures that participants are always in charge of where they live.

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)
What Is Specialist Disability Accommodation?
People with severe functional impairments or who need a lot of help from the NDIS through Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). SDA stands for dwellings explicitly created for people with disabilities and includes sophisticated features that make everyday life easier, safer, and more comfortable. SDA’s mission is to help persons with disabilities live freely and actively in their communities.
SDA Features and Benefits
Support Point Coordinators will help you to source reputable SDA providers in your area who are built to encourage growth, engagement, and comfort. We work closely with participants, their families, and health professionals to ensure that each SDA arrangement is right for everyone.
SDA Features and Benefits
- Bathrooms and kitchens that are fully accessible
- Adjustable fixtures and benches
- Smart assistive technology that gives people more freedom
- Hoists and transfer equipment that make it easier to move around
- Custom-designed sensory spaces for people who have sensory processing problems
- Large layouts that provide you privacy and chances to engage with others
The Support Point Difference
The right living space will help everyone grow, become more independent, and get involved in their community. Our Coordinators will work with families, service providers, and occupational therapists to ensure that each person has a person-centred SDA experience that satisfies their physical, emotional, and social requirements and helps them build self-confidence and skills. We can organise SDA assessments if required.
Supported Independent Living (SIL)
What Is Supported Independent Living?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is an adaptable NDIS service that helps people live independently, whether alone or with others. SIL can be customised to meet various needs, from a few hours a day to full-time help around the clock. The main goal is to provide participants the resources and support they need to handle daily responsibilities, learn new skills, and feel like they belong in their families and communities.
How Support Point can help you find the right SIL
We will look for professional SIL providers who provide daily support to participants to help them live their daily lives, make decisions, stick to their routines, and be active members of their families and communities.
SIL support should include:
- Personal care (bathing, dressing, grooming)
- Planning and making meals
- Managing and reminding people to take their medications
- Helping with household chores (cleaning, laundry, organisation)
- Budgeting and managing personal finances
- Helping people go to appointments and activities
- Encouraging people to make friends and learn new skills
Flexibility and Inclusion
We know that everyone’s needs are different and may even change over time. SIL Homes should be customisable, with part-time and full-time support options for participants.
Individualised Living Options (ILO)
What Are Individualised Living Options?
Individualised Living Options (ILO) give NDIS participants creative and flexible living options that differ from typical group accommodation. ILOs are for those who want their home to match their ideal home, which upholds their beliefs, ambitions, and way of life. You might live with a helpful host family, share a home with a buddy or housemate, or live alone with personalised drop-in support.
How We Help You in Your ILO Journey ( More detailed information, please visit our ILO page (Click here)
Support Point will start exploring Stage 1 (exploration and Design) and Stage 2 (Implementation) by talking with everyone involved, including the participants, their families, friends, carers, and other significant people. This collaborative approach helps us understand what “home” means to each person, including their cultural needs, lifestyle goals, and need for aid.
An ILO model may encompass:
- Co-living with a host or mentor in a familial environment
- Sharing a residence with a compatible peer for mutual support
- Independent living with purchased assistance
Ongoing Support and Review
As your needs or goals change, we will conduct regular check-ins to ensure your living situation is still the best fit for you. We will work with your ILO provider to change the degree of help and frequency to keep you safe, healthy, happy, independent, and feeling like you belong.
Short-Term and Medium-Term Accommodation (STA/MTA)
Short-Term Accommodation (STA)
Short-Term Accommodation (STA), often known as respite care, gives participants and their caretakers a much-needed break. STA provides a temporary, fully supported space where you may try new things, gain new skills, and meet new people in a safe and easy-to-reach place.
STA offers:
- Help and support for families and carers
- Opportunities to make new friends and socialise
- Access to skill-building activities and community events
- Help getting ready for more permanent housing or changes
Support Point will help you find suitable, caring, competent STA providers in your area.
Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA)
Medium-term accommodation (MTA) is perfect for people who need a safe, stable place to live while they wait for permanent housing or during transitions. During change, MTA helps people maintain their routines, get help, and feel safe.
MTA help includes:
- Temporary accommodation that is comfortable and easy to access
- Help with daily tasks and personal care
- Working with NDIS teams and allied health experts
- Emotional and social support during the transition period
We will help you find suitable STA and MTA alternatives in your location. These alternatives are designed to help you relax, stay healthy, and focus on your future goals, whether you need them for a few weeks or months.
