NDIS/SDA HOMES
At Inspired Homes we have a number of NDIS/SDA Designs:
What is the NDIS?
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides support to people with permanent and significant disabilities. Introduced in 2016 the NDIS was designed to assist the 14% (around 4.3 million) of Australians currently living with an extreme functional impairment and/or very high support needs. Within the next five years, the National Disability Insurance Scheme will provide more than $22 billion in funding a year to an estimated 500,000 Australians. The NDIS also provides people with disabilities with information and connections to services in their communities such as doctors, sporting clubs, support groups, libraries and schools.
What are SDA Homes?
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) refers to accommodation for people who require specialist housing solutions, including to assist with the delivery of supports that cater for their extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. When a person is deemed to have an extreme functional impairment and/or very high support needs, SDA dwellings allow them to live more independently. Approved SDA participants are eligible for guaranteed government funding as required under their NDIS plan. SDA funding under the NDIS will stimulate investment in the development of new high quality dwellings for use by eligible NDIS participants.
SDA Design Categories
SDA dwellings have special design requirements to meet the needs of people who have permanent and significant disabilities. All dwellings must be constructed to comply with the National Construction Code (NCC) and SDA requirements. A typical home is normally 3 – 4 bedrooms, housing 2 – 3 people with a disability and 1 carer. Different home designs are offered to suit tenants requirements, ranging from basic care to full spinal support designs. SDA dwellings provide tenants a place to live independently, whilst still receiving the daily care they require. SDA Homes are broken into four design categories, all with individual specifications and requirements:
