About the service
About Respite & Short-Term Accommodation (STA) under the NDIS
Respite, which the NDIS calls Short-Term Accommodation (STA), is a short stay away from home with the support you need. This registration group also covers Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA) while long-term housing is being arranged, and host-family or other shared living arrangements. It often gives carers a break, and it comes from your Core supports budget.
Many SIL providers are also registered here, so check that a provider offers short stays and has vacancies before you plan around them. Ask what support is on site overnight, how many people stay at once, and how they learn your routines before you arrive.

Is STA the same as respite?
Mostly, yes. The NDIS calls it Short-Term Accommodation, and many families still call it respite because it often gives carers a break. It is funded from your Core supports budget.

MTA is somewhere to live for a period when you have a long-term home arranged but can't move in yet, for example while SDA is being built or home modifications are finished. The support you need while you are there is funded separately.
