Medium Term Accommodation – NDIS Transition Housing with Q1Care
There are times when you need a safe and stable place to live while you wait for your long term housing to be ready. Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) under the NDIS is designed to give you just that — a comfortable home with the right supports while you are in between living arrangements.
You might be waiting for your Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) to become available, having home modifications completed, finalising a new rental, or moving out of another setting such as a family home or shared arrangement. Whatever your situation, Q1Care’s MTA is a secure stepping stone until your permanent home is ready.
What Medium Term Accommodation means under the NDIS
The NDIS funds Medium Term Accommodation as temporary housing for participants who already have a confirmed long term housing solution.
- MTA must be included in your NDIS plan
- It is generally funded for up to 90 days, although the time may vary depending on your needs
- The funding covers accommodation only, with your daily living supports funded separately from your Core budget
- MTA is not designed to be a permanent home, but a safe place to stay while you transition to your long term housing

Accessing NDIS funding for MTA
To access MTA, it must be included in your NDIS plan and you must have a confirmed long term housing option. Your Support Coordinator or Local Area Coordinator can help ensure all required documentation and approvals are in place.
