Testimonials for MediStays community
The Victorian Football Integration and Development Association (FIDA) support a league of footy players with intellectual disability to play a full season of home and away games each year. This includes a spot in the National Carnival and MediStays Cup competitions, and for some players, this means the opportunity to travel interstate. Short Term Accommodation is needed for players and their supports to attend away games.
"Caring for my son takes a lot of energy, especially as I get older. To give me a much-needed break, MediStays books two nights respite for my son every month. It may not sound much, but it's all I need to recharge my batteries. I also have peace of mind that my son is safe and happy with his regular support workers from home."
My wife and I have a beautiful family. However, the complex needs of our daughter means that we rarely get a break and our other children rarely get 1:1 attention. Booking STA with MediStays gives me a regular respite break with our daughter, while my wife enjoys time at home with our other children. And, we also have the option for MediStays to book our daughter at STA with supports onsite.
As my daughter gets older, her interest in developing independence is gradually increasing. Last year we started booking regular short stays with MediStays to travel from Gippsland to Melbourne. Grace* loves her trips to the city! She has learnt how to catch the tram and train, and is more confident around large groups of people. Ultimately, her goal is to build enough confidence to stay without me.

How we assist you to achieve your NDIS plan goals
STA provides participants of the NDIS and their support networks the opportunity to live out of home for a short period.
Funded through core supports, STA provides important opportunities for respite and assistance to experience new things.
Respite Stays
Current living arrangements could be in shared SDA, or your family home. A stay away from home can give you some well-deserved ‘me-time’, recharge your batteries, and inspire new goals.
The added benefit can be the opportunity for informal supports to recharge their batteries too. You can book STA with your own, trusted support workers, giving your informal supports a rest at home or our onsite teams. A respite break for everyone helps sustain your permanent living situation.
Personal Goals and Growth
For some participants of the NDIS, expanding your independence is a very important goal. With the right plan and supports in place, progress will be made.
Growth can look like opportunities for new creative experiences or learning to navigate public transport independently. The possibilities are endless. At MediStays, we support you to build capacity and achieve your goals.
Need accessible features during your stay?
Our accommodation supports a diverse range of accessibility requirements.
