Short term accommodation STA is funded support within your NDIS plan that allows you to stay away from your usual home for up to 28 days per year. This can be in various settings, including respite care facilities, hotels, or accessible holiday rentals.
MTA is funded support within your NDIS plan that allows you to stay away from your usual home for up to 90 days per year. It’s typically used when your permanent housing is being modified or built and you need temporary accommodation.
Transitioning from hospital to your long-term housing can be a challenging process, especially when facing recovery or ongoing care needs. At Myxa, we understand this delicate phase and offer a supportive bridge to ease your journey.

The differences between STA and MTA are:
Your NDIS plan will specify if you have been approved for STA or MTA. You do not need to be approved for STA if you have MTA approval and vice versa. You only need approval for the type of accommodation you want to access.
While MTA offers flexibility, stays are typically capped at 90 days. This is because it’s designed as a temporary housing solution while you await a more permanent living arrangement. However, if you have unforeseen circumstances that require a longer stay, you can request an extension from the NDIS. Be prepared to provide documentation explaining the reason for the extension and any potential impact on your transition to your permanent housing.
STA offers a shorter stay window, typically 28 days. This is ideal for situations like temporary breaks from your usual living environment or short-term support needs. The good news is you have flexibility within that timeframe. You can use all your allocated days at once for a longer stay or spread them out across multiple visits, depending on your needs.
One-bedroom apartments: These provide a private space with a bedroom, ensuite bathroom, and kitchenette for a more independent living experience.
Studio apartments: Our studios offer a cozy and functional living space with a combined bedroom and living area, along with a private bathroom and kitchenette.
For personal care needs, due to insurance requirements, you’ll be supported by our qualified Myxa disability support workers. This ensures we can deliver the highest standard of care and meet all necessary safety protocols.
However, for other support services such as community access or assistance with household tasks, you have more flexibility. You’re welcome to choose a disability support worker you’re familiar with, as long as they are registered and qualified to provide the specific services you require.
