Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) offers NDIS participants a supported place to stay while you’re getting ready to move into your long-term home. Funded by the NDIS for up to 90 days, MTA is there to support you during transitional periods—like waiting for home modifications, a new build, or a vacancy in your permanent housing. It’s typically a short-term, one-time solution to help bridge the gap between living arrangements. 

Ability Options offer wrap around MTA services at Hamlyn Terrace on the NSW Central Coast. 

MTA might be right for you if: 

  • You’re leaving hospital or aged care and need somewhere safe while a permanent option is being arranged
  • You’ve been approved for Specialist Disability Accommodation, but your home is not ready yet
  • You’re transitioning between living arrangements and need an interim housing and support solution

Benefits of MTA 

  • Avoid unnecessary hospital or aged care stays 
  • Build independence and life skills while waiting for long-term accommodation 
  • Access to daily supports in a safe and supported home environment 
  • Opportunities for socialisation and community engagement
  • Ease caring responsibilities on family and informal supports 

Getting Started 

MTA can be included in your NDIS plan when you’re waiting for a long-term housing solution. To get started: 

  • Talk with your Support Coordinator or NDIS Planner to apply for MTA funding 
  • Research available accommodation options that suit your daily living and care requirements
  • Choose an MTA provider that aligns with your support needs and lifestyle preferences
