NDIS Rates & Bookings

NDIS funded Specialist Short term Accommodation (Holiday & Respite)

Note: Currently not NDIS registered for this item and thus unable to bill NDIS directly using the short term accommodation line item. We will register under the National Quality & Safeguarding framework to commence from 1 July 2018. If the cabin at Green Acres & the house at Maryland are ready before 1 july, then plan managed and self managed participants can bill the agency directly. Therefore ask for this budget to be plan or self managed to allow for you to use of services. Alternatively, other options are explained below.

  • Our short term accommodation stay packages include the following:
    • Support during your stay by our Registered Psychologist, Occupational Therapist and/or Wellbeing Assistants. All supports and therapy plans created and overseen by our registered AHPRA Clinicians
    • A wellness therapy plan with an identified goal to work towards achieving or part achieving during stay. This includes pre-assessment on day 1 and post-assessment at end of stay, to assist in monitoring goal related progress. Helping to inform future stays or other therapy interventions that may be engaged for the person. Goals can be broad or specific, related to wellness, psychological well-being, functionality, living skills etc. support is tailored for the participant.
    • Accommodation
    • Non active overnight support (intercom connects to support request at Green Acres as support is separate on the farm. Non active overnight support onsite in the cabin can be arranged if necessary. At Maryland support is onsite in the same house).
    • All meals [breakfast/morning tea/lunch/afternoon tea/dinner/dessert] our aim is to include guests in the planning, cooking etc as part of building independent living skills, on the farm this includes harvesting from vegetable garden, orchard, chooks etc
    • Any events/markets/activity costs if attended & where costs are incurred. All of these costs are included (spending money is not included)
    • Digital photos of your stay [emailed to nominated email address]
* we will assist you in determining if the farm stay accommodation is a good fit for your person with a disability. Please consider the following; that our support has non active overnight period [overnight support if needed can be accessed via intercom) clients/guests sleep independently in Open plan studio cabin on the property, separate to the main farm house so therefore cannot exhibit or have history of behaviours of concern including any history (not limited to) sexualized behaviours or sexual offenses and/or where they wander/run away etc.

Vehicle travel [pick up and drop off] can be arranged and in general is included as part of the 24hr stay from the time transport leaves the accommodation to collect you. It tends to work best for most people, especially for farm stay bookings at Stroud. Otherwise additional cost/charge will be incurred if other arrangements are required.

Green Acres only provides independent sole usage of the cabin at the farm stay unless 2 friends or siblings are requesting this together, in which case separate quotes will be provided for each NDIS plan.

If you would like a private room at Maryland for yourself with our support then the 1:1 price guide rate is billed. If you are bringing your own carer and booking a private room with 2 beds, then taking into consideration that an available place is occupied, we will provide a quote for the time of your stay, factoring in other support or inclusions you may require of us. 
Specialised Services you can add to your stay or have independently at our Maryland Office or other location.
It would also be advisable to include provision for 1:1 specialised allied health services which can be provided at Green Acres or Maryland locations by Yellowbird Wellbeing during your stay [we can claim directly from the NDIS portal for these supports]:
