Frequently Asked Questions

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) in Tewantin refers to purpose-built or modified housing funded by the NDIS for participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. SDA funding covers the cost of the physical dwelling not the support workers who assist the resident. Participants living in SDA are typically also funded for Supported Independent Living (SIL) or other in-home supports separately.

SDA eligibility in Tewantin is limited to NDIS participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs who cannot be appropriately housed in standard accommodation. Eligibility is determined by the NDIA based on functional assessments and evidence submitted by allied health professionals. Only a small proportion of NDIS participants qualify for SDA funding.

SDA properties in Tewantin may be built to one of four NDIS design categories: Improved Liveability, Fully Accessible, Robust, or High Physical Support. Each category is designed for participants with specific functional requirements. High Physical Support properties include ceiling hoists and hospital-grade facilities, while Robust dwellings are built to withstand complex behaviours of concern. An NDIS planner or support coordinator can advise which category best suits a participant’s needs.

In Tewantin, SDA and SIL are two separate NDIS funding streams that are often used together. SDA funds the physical home the bricks and mortar for participants with very high support needs. SIL funds the paid support workers who assist a person to live in that home. A participant may receive both SDA and SIL funding simultaneously, but each is assessed and approved separately by the NDIA.
