The start of a
rewarding partnership

Sitting down with your client to search for the perfect SDA property together is a hugely rewarding experience for you both. This is what being a Support Coordinator is all about – helping them become the architect of their own lives. If you get this right, you’re playing an incredible role making that happen by guiding them towards a brand-new home, designed and purpose-built to enrich their experience of life – and we’d love to be part of that.

With you all the way

At Shift Accessible Homes, we’re excited to join you on the journey. As a proud Rocky Bay company with access to profound insights gained from over 85 years working alongside people living with disabilities, our team has an intuitive understanding of both what you’re trying to achieve as a Support Coordinator, and what’s required to make SDA homes as liveable and life changing as possible. Together, we actively seek out opportunities to help your clients live as independently as possible.

How it works

At Shift, we’re here to make your job as a Support Coordinator seamless as you help your clients navigate the SDA process and access the right NDIS supports.

STAGE-01

Stage 1: Planning

After we meet to see if we’re a good fit, it’s time hand over to you to let you do what you do best. Once you’ve completed a Request for Home and Living Supports form, gather relevant supporting documentation and submit it all to the NDIA for consideration, then it’s just a matter of waiting to see if your client is eligible for SDA funding. The NDIA Home and Living team may determine it more appropriate for you to explore modifications to their existing home first, something that
Rocky Bay can help with! However, if your client gets SDA approval, you will be notified of their funding level for the physical SDA property (Improved Liveability, Fully Accessible, High Physical Supports, and Robust), design category, location and number of occupants. Your client may also be eligible for Supported Independent Living (SIL), which is the direct support they require in their day-to-day life. This whole process usually takes around 3 months (as a rough guide).

STAGE-02

Stage 2: Building

Now the exciting bit - bringing your client’s new home dream to life. Shift Accessible Homes can now confirm the property is an SDA enrolled residence, and partner with you and your client, their SIL service provider, and the building company to design and build their SDA home. Build times are dependent on many outside factors, but you can expect around 12 months.

What’s next?

We’d love to share this SDA journey with you and your client. Together with Rocky Bay, we’re confident you’ll have all the support, knowledge and resources you’ll need to make this a truly rewarding experience.
