Moving into an Edenbridge Living home is a life-changing experience for my brother, who has an intellectual disability. The 1-bedroom villa gives him the independence he craved but still with support available and friends living next door. The Edenbridge team's dedication to their residents' comfort is evident in every detail of their homes.

Frequently Asked Questions

SDA is a range of housing designed for people with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. SDA dwellings have accessible features to help residents live more independently and allow other supports to be delivered better or more safely.

In the context of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia, understanding the difference between NDIS housing and Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is crucial for participants seeking suitable living arrangements. Here’s a brief explanation followed by a bulleted list highlighting the key differences:

  1. NDIS Housing:
    • A broad term for any housing or living support provided under the NDIS.
    • Includes funding for home modifications, support services, and independent living programs.
    • Aimed at a wide range of participants with varying needs.
  2. SDA Housing:
    • A subset of NDIS housing for individuals with significant disabilities requiring special housing solutions.
    • Involves specially designed or modified homes to cater to the severe functional impairments or high support needs of residents.
    • Eligibility is determined based on specific criteria, and not all NDIS participants qualify for SDA.

Understanding these distinctions helps NDIS participants navigate their options more effectively, ensuring they access the housing solutions that best meet their individual needs.

To enrol in an NDIS plan, follow these steps:

  1. Check eligibility: Confirm if you meet the age, residency, and disability requirements.
  2. Contact the NDIS: Call the NDIS or visit their website to start your access request.
  3. Provide evidence: Submit documentation of your disability and how it impacts your daily life.
  4. Access Request Form: Complete and submit the Access Request Form (ARF) if required.
  5. Plan meeting: Once approved, participate in a planning meeting to discuss your needs and goals.
  6. Receive your plan: Your NDIS plan is created, detailing the supports and services you’re eligible for.

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a range of services provided to people with disabilities to support them in living as independently as possible. This typically includes assistance with daily tasks, personal care, and developing skills to participate in the community, tailored to the individual’s needs and goals. SIL aims to empower individuals by enhancing their ability to perform everyday activities within their own homes and communities.

There are four distinct SDA design categories: Improved Liveability, Fully Accessible, High Physical Support, and Robust.

Having checked SDA dwelling enrolment and vacancies and within the availability of suitable SDA properties, you can choose your accommodation based on location, type, and provider.

Yes, you can move to another SDA if your needs change or if you find a more suitable option. However, this requires a reassessment of your eligibility and needs.

To be eligible for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) homes, an individual typically will be aged between 18 and 65, have extreme functional impairment or very high support needs, and be approved for SDA funding in their NDIS plan.

The timeline can vary depending on individual circumstances, including the availability of suitable accommodations and the completeness of your application.

SDA funding covers the cost of the physical environment for eligible NDIS participants. SDA funding does not cover personal daily living costs like groceries and internet.

Simply contact us and our dedicated team will guide you every step of the way, ensuring you’re on the right path.
