Benefits of NDIS Housing

At Southern Star Care, we make sure that you have a hassle-free experience when you choose one of our NDIS housing facilities. All these accommodation options are personalised to meet your special needs. From better accessibility to assistance with self-care, our accommodations can offer almost everything you may require to live independently. Check out some of the major benefits of using the NDIS housing options from Southern Star Care:

Independence of the participants and their families:

All our NDIS accommodations are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and access to essential amenities. Thanks to these features, NDIS participants can easily accomplish simple tasks and have a sense of fulfilment. These housing facilities allow you to take charge of your daily life and enjoy greater independence. Even though support and care are available at all these accommodations, you can easily perform regular chores, engage in simple hobbies, and socialise with other participants and the local community with ease.

Stress-Free Experience:

When you are choosing a SIL accommodation, you can get all the necessary support and facilities based on your specific needs, preferences, and conditions. If you have an extreme disability and need constant care and support, Southern Star Care accommodations can offer constant assistance for you. These housing options guarantee the complete safety of participants. Moreover, the team of medical experts and support givers is there to ensure you have a stress-free experience at the NDIS housing in Melbourne.

A Safe & Sound Support System:

When you choose a shared accommodation option at Southern Star Care, you get to meet new people. In some cases, they also have the same disabilities as yours, which is why they precisely understand the challenges and shortcomings you face on a daily basis. While you may need to adjust your routine and mindset during your stay in a shared accommodation, you can certainly create a chain of support, which allows you to build connections and reduce the feeling of loneliness. The community engagement programs held by the team at Southern Star Care also improve the overall experience for you.

Effortless Access to Additional Support and Services:

All the NDIS housing facilities at Southern Star Care are well-designed and accessible for all eligible NDIS participants. Some of the highlighting features of these accommodations include:

  • Secure living space with 24/7 support and care.
  • Smart design features that adapt to the various needs of the participants
  • Sensory-responsive lighting arrangement for comfortable living.
  • Personalised support options to fulfil your special requirements.

You can mention your specific requests to our support staff, and we will arrange the necessary accommodation facility from our available NDIS housing options.

How to Apply for NDIS Housing?

Before you can apply for NDIS housing in Melbourne, you need to confirm that you are eligible for it. There are several criteria that you must fulfil, such as:

You must be younger than 65 when you apply for NDIS.

You must have Australian citizenship or permanent residence in Australia.

You must be living in Australia.

You need to meet the disability or early intervention requirements.

If you have one or more impairments that substantially impact your ability to perform daily activities, you may be eligible for NDIS support under the disability requirements. Once you can confirm your eligibility for the NDIS, one of your local area coordination or early childhood partners will help you apply for the support.

If there is no NDIS provider in your area, you can contact the NDIS helpline number 1800 800 110 to get assistance with the application process.

At Southern Star Care, our experienced support team can also help you with the referral process and guide you in using your funding more effectively. Get in touch with our team to learn more about our NDIS support and accommodation options and also to check if you have funding for SIL facilities. If you need help with achieving funding, our team can help you with that as well.
