Specialist Disability Accomodation (SDA) - Housing Assessment
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is a type of housing or accommodation for participants who require specialist housing solutions (for example specific modifications or assistive technology) and to cater for their complex functional impairment or high support needs. SDA assessment involves an extensive evaluation of your current and future needs, and provides a recommendation to NDIS regarding your eligibility for specialist disability accommodation and the specific environmental features required for optimal independence and safety. This can include specific recommendations around wheelchair accessible homes, installation of ceiling hoists, use of home automation technology or robust features to aid safety.
