How to reach your goals with NDIS Short Term Accommodation
January 23, 2023

Are you wondering how NDIS Short Term Accommodation (STA) or NDIS respite can support your goals? Whether you’re looking to try new things, build independence, or simply take a break, STA offers great benefits for both participants and carers.
Here’s how Aspire Hub can help you make the most of your NDIS plan.
What is Short-Term Accommodation (STA)?
Short-Term Accommodation, often called STA NDIS or respite care, gives you a chance to stay somewhere new and supported – like a group facility or one-on-one care setup – for a short period of time.
STA can be:
-
One-on-one support, either at home or out in the community
-
A group-based stay with others who have similar interests
-
Overnight or weekend respite in a safe and comfortable setting
It’s designed to give both you and your carer a break while helping you grow new skills and experiences.
Key Benefits of NDIS Short Term Accommodation
1. Get More Involved in the Community
STA gives you the chance to get out and about. You could:
-
Visit local attractions
-
Join a social or interest group
-
Go to events or workshops
-
Try something fun like a day trip or sporting activity
At Aspire Hub, we offer activities like:
-
Footy Weekend
-
Explorer Weekend
-
Food Trail
All designed to help you feel included and supported.
2. Make New Friends
Spending time in STA means you’ll meet new people and connect in a safe and welcoming space. It’s a great way to:
-
Build confidence in social settings
-
Try group activities
-
Form new friendships
3. Enjoy a Change of Scenery
A new environment can be refreshing. Even a few nights away can help you reset and experience something different – while still feeling safe and supported.
At Aspire Hub, our STA homes are:
-
Warm and inviting
-
Located near shops, parks, and attractions
-
Designed to feel like a real home
4. Recharge and Take a Break
Everyone needs time out. STA gives you a break from routine and gives your carer a chance to rest too. It can help:
-
Relieve stress
-
Prevent burnout for carers
-
Give you personal time to relax or explore new interests
Watch a movie, go for a walk, or just enjoy some quiet downtime – it’s your choice.
5. Build Your Independence
STA is a great stepping stone toward Supported Independent Living (SIL). It helps you get comfortable being away from home while still getting the support you need.
You’ll get help with:
-
Personal care (showering, dressing, toileting)
-
Medication management
-
Daily tasks and life skills (like cooking or social activities)
All in a safe, supported setting.
6. Learn New Skills and Try New Things
At Aspire Hub, we love helping participants grow. During your stay, you can:

Join art, fitness, or music sessions

Learn how to cook or manage daily tasks
