What Is NDIS Respite Care?

NDIS respite care provides temporary support for participants while giving their carers or family members a break from their caregiving responsibilities. This support can be delivered in different ways, including in-home assistance or short-term accommodation.

Under the NDIS, respite services are often provided through Short Term Accommodation (STA) funding, which may include accommodation, meals and support from trained staff. Respite care helps participants enjoy new experiences, social activities and a safe environment while maintaining their independence and wellbeing.
