The TrialStay Program
EQUAL Living's approach to Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA) aligns with the recommendations in the 2023 NDIS Review, advocating for opportunities for participants to try new living arrangements before making a long-term commitment. This aligns with the principle that individuals should have the chance to experience living options at different life stages.
EQUAL Living embraces this philosophy by offering a 'TrialStay' program within our MTA services. This initiative allows participants to experience different types of living arrangements and supports before deciding on a permanent solution.
TrialStay Program Features:
TrialStay Program Features:
Participants can live in our MTA units for a designated period, which provides a realistic living experience away from their current home.
Exploration of SDA Options
Since our MTA units are located in the same facility as our SDA accommodation, participants can easily experience what it would be like to live in an SDA home.
Flexible Support System
Tailored support services are provided throughout the trial period, allowing participants to assess what level of support they will need in the long term.
Personalized Adjustment
Adjustments to the living space and support services can be made in real-time during the trial to ensure that the participant's needs are fully met.
Professional Guidance
Throughout the trial, our team works closely with participants, families, and support coordinators to gather insights and feedback to inform their final living arrangement decisions.
By participating in the TrialStay program, individuals can make informed decisions about their long-term accommodation needs, ensuring they find the best fit for their lifestyle and support requirements. This hands-on approach reflects EQUAL Living's commitment to empowering participants through informed choice and control over their living arrangements, in line with the NDIS Review's recommendations.
Crisis Accommodation
Medium-Term Accommodation (MTA) funding under the NDIS can be a crucial resource for individuals facing crisis situations. This funding provides a safe, temporary housing solution for participants who are in urgent need due to unforeseen circumstances, such as homelessness, family breakdown, or the sudden unavailability of their usual residence.
MTA funding ensures that during these challenging times, individuals have access to a secure and supportive environment, where they can continue to receive necessary care and support. This vital resource offers not just a place of refuge but also stability and continuity of care, ensuring that individuals can maintain their well-being and progress towards long-term housing solutions during periods of crisis.
