NDIS Respite Care Western Sydney
NDIS respite care gives participants a safe, supported short break, and gives the carers who do so much a genuine rest. Short Term Accommodation with a nurse-led team you can trust.
Registered NDIS providerA supported break, for everyone
NDIS respite care, also called Short Term Accommodation (STA), gives participants a safe, supported stay away from home and gives family carers a genuine, well-earned rest. It can be a single night, a weekend or a longer planned break.
At 1 Care Connect, respite is more than a bed. Our nurse-led team means participants with health needs are properly supported, and the stay is a positive experience: new activities, new faces and a real change of scene.
Is respite funded by the NDIS? Yes. Short Term Accommodation, including respite, is commonly funded within your Core Supports. Your support coordinator or Local Area Coordinator can help you include it in your NDIS plan.
