Short Term Accommodation (STA) and Respite in Logan and Brisbane

Short Term Accommodation is a short stay away from home with support included: a few nights, a week, or a planned break each month. It gives you a change of scene and gives the people who usually support you a rest. Parcare Lifestyle provides STA and respite across Logan, Brisbane and Redland City, and through our Melbourne branch.

How a stay with Parcare works

• A private room or self contained unit in one of our homes, with support workers on site day and night.
• Meals, activities and support are all part of the stay, so you arrive and settle in.
• Support is planned around you: personal care, medication, routines and the things you like to do.
• Stays can be one off, for a family holiday or an emergency, or booked as a regular break.

Respite that is actually a break

Some people want a quiet week in a comfortable home. Others want to do something. We run camping trips, interstate travel, 4WD adventures and personalised respite packages built around what the participant wants from the time away, with the right level of support alongside.

Funding

STA is funded from the Core budget of your NDIS plan under Assistance with Daily Life. The NDIS typically funds up to 28 days a year, taken as short blocks or single nights, and the daily rate covers accommodation, support, food and activities. We give you a written quote before the stay so you know exactly what will be claimed.

Planning a stay

We meet you first, learn your routines and any health or behaviour support needs, and match you with workers who suit you. If you are thinking about moving into supported accommodation later, a short stay is also a good way to try it. See what is open on our vacancies page.
