You have the option to stay with your own attendant care worker or receive assistance from our specialist support team. Specifically trained to work with people with spinal cord injury, our guest attendants can assist with everything from personal care to recreation and leisure, meal preparation and feeding assistance and community access.

We’ll look at the disability specific barriers that prevent you from pursuing your home and living goals, and how the support will address your disability support needs.
There are some things to remember:
Setting more and bigger goals doesn’t mean we’ll fund more and bigger funded supports.
Setting a goal about an explicit type or amount of support you might want doesn’t mean we have an obligation to fund that support or in that amount.
For example, you might have a goal to move into your own home. We’ll look at all the ways you might be able to pursue that goal. Funding Medium Term Accommodation could be one way.
Learn more about setting goals.
We need to understand how Medium Term Accommodation will also help your social or work life.4 Having a safe place to stay that meets your disability needs will often support your social and work life.

Open spaces, extra wide doors and windows at wheelchair height, recessed door tracks are all key features, designed to make your stay as comfortable and independent as possible.
