Accessing Specialist Disability Accommodation

With more than 80 Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) homes around Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Wide Bay region, and more on the way, we'll help find the right home for you.

Our goal is to help as many Australians as possible, under the NDIS, find the right home for their needs and housing goals.

Our homes are suitable for participants with High Physical Support, Fully Accessible and Improved Liveability NDIS SDA funding. We also have a limited number of Robust homes and homes for families with Appendix H funding.

The road to SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) can be a complex journey with many detours.

At the DHC, we aim to providing a Roadmap to SDA which helps you navigate the journey as smoothly as possible.

GOC Care

I had the pleasure of connecting with [the DHC] NDIS Accommodation Manager Ashleigh. Starting a new working relationship with this company was the best decision we could have made in assisting with supporting our client and his family. Declaring our goals, committing to supporting his dire care needs, understanding what our common priorities really were has now secured our participant a new home with brilliant in-home direct services. His future is now secure and living his best life. With elderly parents in their mid-80s, Mum and Dad are both at peace and commented on how much growth they’ve seen in their son within the past couple months, compared to the past two years. That is huge!!

I would like to mention how amazing the “Dragonfly House” is, which my Sister is moving into this week. The house design is modern, spacious and beautiful and we are all very excited about this wonderful opportunity.
