Medium Term Accommodation & Respite

Between homes or need a short stay? We provide safe, supported accommodation.

We offer temporary accommodation (up to 90 days) with care included—when you can’t stay at home or need a transition period.

This service is for people waiting for housing, leaving the hospital, or when carers need a break.

Understanding Medium Term Accommodation (MTA)

Medium Term Accommodation is designed for participants who need a temporary place to live while waiting for a more permanent housing solution.

This may include situations such as:

  • Waiting for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) approval or availability
  • Transitioning from hospital, rehabilitation, or another care setting
  • Changes in your current living situation

During this period, we ensure you are supported in a stable environment while your long-term arrangements are being finalised.

What is Respite Care?

Respite provides short-term accommodation and support, giving both participants and their carers time to rest and recharge.

It can be planned or arranged during unexpected situations, ensuring continuity of care without disruption.

What You Can Expect During Your Stay

Our accommodation is designed to feel safe, comfortable, and supportive — not clinical.

We provide:

  • 24/7 support from trained and compassionate staff
  • Assistance with personal care and daily living activities
  • Meal preparation and household support
  • Medication reminders and wellbeing monitoring
  • A structured yet flexible daily routine
  • Support to maintain community participation where possible

A Supportive Environment That Feels Like Home

We focus on creating a space where you feel:

  • Safe and secure
  • Respected and comfortable
  • Supported in your independence

Our team takes the time to understand your preferences, routines, and needs so your stay feels familiar and stress-free.
