Short Term Accommodation (STA) / Respite

This is a short stay away from home. It gives carers a break and gives participants the chance to try new things, meet people, or just enjoy a change of environment. It usually includes a place to stay, support with daily tasks, meals, and fun activities.

Everyone deserves a change of pace—and Short Term Accommodation (STA), including respite, offers just that. At SilverLining Care Group, we provide welcoming, fully supported short stays that give participants the chance to rest, recharge, and enjoy new experiences in a safe and caring environment.

Whether it’s for a few days or a short holiday, STA offers benefits for both participants and their carers.

Our STA support typically includes:

  • Comfortable accommodation in a supportive setting

  • Help with daily tasks like personal care and routines

  • Nutritious meals and shared activities

  • Opportunities to socialise and meet new people

  • Fun and engaging outings or in-home programs

  • Peace of mind for families and carers

This short-term support gives carers a well-earned break and gives participants time to build independence, learn new skills, or simply enjoy a change in surroundings.

Take a break, feel supported, and return home refreshed—STA with SilverLining Care Group makes it easy.
