Short Term Accommodation (STA)

A supported short stay that feels like home.

Authentic Care offers Short Term Accommodation (STA) to NDIS participants who need temporary support away from their usual home. Whether it’s a planned short break, respite care, or a chance to try a new environment, our STA service provides a safe, comfortable and fully supported place to stay.

With 24-hour support, meals, transport and care included, STA is more than just accommodation, it’s an opportunity to recharge, connect with others and gain more independence in a different setting.
