Using your NDIS plan for short-term respite

Short-term respite must be specifically funded in the participant’s NDIS plan and used in line with current NDIS rules. The NDIA generally considers the participant’s disability-related needs, their usual informal care arrangements and whether respite helps those arrangements continue. Participants should confirm their available funding before booking.

Important funding detailView less

Current NDIS guidance excludes holiday packages, cruises, airfares, entertainment tickets, food, meals and ordinary holiday costs. Funding may cover eligible disability-related support and standard accommodation, subject to the participant’s plan.

Meta Healthcare can explain its service and pricing, but the NDIA decides what is funded. Please check the current plan and official NDIS guidance for your circumstances.

What is respite care under the NDIS?

Respite care gives participants a short-term break from their usual routine, while giving carers and families time to rest. It can take many forms, from a short stay in accommodation to support out in the community. The aim is to give everyone involved a chance to recharge.

Is respite covered by the NDIS?

Respite may be funded through your NDIS plan, often through short-term accommodation (STA) funding or core and capacity building supports. Every plan is different, so the best step is to talk with us. We cannot guarantee how your funding will apply, but we do promise to explain your options clearly.

Can respite supports help families and carers?

Yes. Respite is just as much about carers as it is about participants. Caring for a loved one is demanding, and a break helps you rest, recharge, and keep going. While we care for your family member, you can take the time you need for yourself.
