NDIS Medium Term Accommodation: A Flexible Housing Solution for Participants

ndis medium term accommodation

For people with disability, finding the right housing solution that meets their needs and ensures comfort can be a challenge. This is where MTA plays a vital role. Designed to offer temporary yet stable housing, NDIS Medium Term Accommodation provides support to participants who are transitioning between living arrangements. At AD Healthcare, we are committed to delivering high-quality, safe, and accessible Accommodation that empowers individuals to maintain their independence while waiting for permanent housing solutions.

What is NDIS Medium Term Accommodation?

NDIS Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is a funded support category under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) designed for participants who need temporary housing for up to 90 days. This support is particularly beneficial for individuals who:

  • Are waiting for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) to be ready.
  • Are transitioning from hospital care or other institutional settings.
  • Require short-term housing before moving into long-term supported accommodation.
  • Need a temporary home while their permanent residence is being modified or renovated.

Unlike Short-Term Accommodation (STA), which is more focused on respite care, Medium Term Accommodation ensures that participants have a stable living environment with access to essential supports for daily living.

Key Benefits of NDIS Medium Term Accommodation

1. Stability During Transition

Moving between different living arrangements can be stressful. Medium Term Accommodation provides participants with a safe and stable environment while they transition into a permanent home. This eliminates uncertainty and allows them to focus on their well-being.
