Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)

‍

Purpose-Built Homes for High Support Needs

ED Partners assists NDIS participants in Sydney to access Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), which provides purpose-built or modified housing designed for individuals with very high support needs or extreme functional impairment.

‍

Understanding SDA

SDA is an NDIS funding category that covers the cost of the housing itself, built to specific design standards to enable safer and more effective delivery of support. It is for participants whose disability requires a specialist housing solution.

Key Features of SDA Properties:

• Accessible Living Spaces: Designed with features like wider doorways, clear circulation spaces, and accessible bathrooms for ease of movement.
• Safety and Security Features: Includes elements like reinforced walls, secure windows/doors, or emergency communication systems for resident safety.
• Community Access: Located to facilitate access to local amenities, transport, and community connections.
• Modern Facilities: Often includes contemporary designs and amenities suited to the needs of residents.
• Adaptable Design: Built with features that can be easily adapted to meet changing support needs over time.
