Respite Care (STA)

Rest. Recharge. Renew with Trusted Care That Feels Like Home

At ACEE Health Services, we know that everyone participants and caregivers alike—needs a break sometimes. Our Short Term Accommodation (STA), also known as Respite Care, provides a safe, supportive, and homely environment for NDIS participants when their usual carers are unavailable or when they simply need a change of scenery.

Whether it’s for a weekend, a few days, or longer, we offer compassionate, around-the-clock care in a setting designed to help you relax, recharge, and enjoy new experiences.

Short Term Accommodation is a funded NDIS support that provides temporary housing and care for participants when:

  • A primary carer needs a break

  • The participant wants to try independent living in a supported setting

  • Emergency or unplanned situations arise

  • The participant is transitioning between home arrangements

Our STA services include:

  • Comfortable, fully furnished accommodation

  • 24/7 support from qualified staff

  • Personal care (showering, grooming, dressing, etc.)

  • Daily living assistance (meals, medications, routines)

  • Fun recreational and social activities

  • Transport for outings or appointments (on request)

Every stay is tailored to the individual’s needs, preferences, and goals.

  • Warm, Home-Like Environment
    Our respite homes are welcoming and inclusive—far from clinical, and full of care.

  • Skilled & Caring Team
    You’ll be supported by experienced support workers who treat you like family.

  • Fully Accessible Spaces
    Our STA locations cater to various mobility and disability support needs.

  • Fun & Engaging Activities
    We make each stay enjoyable with crafts, games, movies, outings, and more.

  • Peace of Mind for Families
    Carers can rest easy knowing their loved one is in safe, capable hands.

Respite Care (STA) is ideal for:

  • NDIS participants who need temporary accommodation

  • Families or carers needing time to rest, travel, or manage commitments

  • Participants looking to build independence in a supportive setting

  • Individuals in emergency care situations

NDIS funding for STA usually covers up to 28 days per year, which can be used flexibly (e.g., one weekend per month or a full week every quarter).

At ACEE Health Services, respite isn’t just time awayit’s an opportunity. For many participants, Short Term Accommodation becomes a chance to:

  • Gain confidence outside the home

  • Make new friends and memories

  • Learn daily living skills in a safe space

  • Enjoy a change in routine and surroundings
