NDIS Medium Term Accommodation Melbourne from UinCare Support provides temporary accommodation for eligible participants who have a confirmed long-term home but cannot move into it yet. For example, you may be waiting for disability-related home modifications, assistive technology, a supported living placement, or a suitable SDA vacancy.
The NDIS generally funds MTA for up to 90 days in specific circumstances. Importantly, MTA funding covers the accommodation cost only. It does not usually cover food, electricity, internet, personal care, or other disability supports. Where required, those supports must be funded and arranged separately through your NDIS plan.
Because every transition is different, we work with you, your nominee, and your support coordinator to understand accessibility needs, timing, and the confirmed move-on plan. Read the official NDIS explanation of medium-term accommodation, explore our accommodation options, or send a referral.
Waiting for a long-term home can be stressful. Therefore, our MTA approach focuses on stability, clear communication, and practical transition planning. First, we confirm the expected start and end dates, accessibility requirements, and the supports you will need during the stay. Next, we coordinate with the people involved in your move. MTA is not emergency housing, crisis accommodation, or holiday respite; it is a temporary bridge to a confirmed long-term home.
First, your NDIS plan must include approved MTA funding. You also need a confirmed long-term home that is not ready or accessible yet, and you must be unable to remain in your current accommodation while waiting. We review the available information with you before confirming service arrangements.
During your stay, the accommodation should support a safe and predictable routine. We consider location, accessibility requirements, available facilities, proximity to essential services, and the expected length of stay. Any personal care or daily supports are organised separately according to your funded plan.
Finally, we stay focused on the move to your confirmed long-term home. With your consent, we communicate with your support coordinator, nominee, housing provider, and relevant services. Clear milestones and regular updates help reduce delays and support a smoother transition when your permanent arrangement is ready.
