If you don't have community participation funding, you can request it in your next plan review meeting. In this meeting, you'll need to explain how much assistance you need and how your informal support network and carer assist in delivering that support each day.
Try to highlight the impact this has on both of you and how Short Term Accommodation would help this situation. As with every planning meeting, don't forget any documents that support what you are saying. This could include a letter from one of your informal supports explaining why STA would assist give them a break to avoid burn-out can also be convenient. Any proof that makes it simple for the NDIS to know your situation and why it is necessary and reasonable to receive STA.
Your services are designed to address your unique goals. We want you to feel comfortable with your ongoing support needs. Book an initial assessment now, or contact us if you require more information.
