Plan support around life in Melbourne

Match the service to your suburb

Melbourne enquiries should include a postcode and the locations where support is needed. Ask the team to confirm service availability and the practical travel arrangements.

Make your preferences clear

Tell us about your communication style, preferred support times and the skills a worker needs. Include how family, carers or a support coordinator should be involved.

Confirm meeting directions

Please call before attending an office. The team can confirm the current meeting address, access arrangements and whether a phone discussion would suit your needs.

Plan around the participant

A short stay or respite arrangement should consider the participant’s routine, preferences, relationships and goals. Discuss personal care, communication, mobility and any nursing requirements at the outset.

Be clear about what is included

Accommodation, assistance, activities, meals and transport may involve different arrangements. Ask for a clear description of the service, staffing, costs and what the participant needs to bring.

Confirm funding and availability

Do not assume that a stay, holiday or break is funded under an NDIS plan. The relevant funding requirements and the specific service arrangement need confirmation before booking.

Clear answers. A place to start.

Can I enquire about Short Term Accommodation or STA?

Yes. Explain the dates, location and support required. Prime 1 Care can discuss current options and what needs to be confirmed, including suitability, availability, inclusions and funding.

Can respite be arranged urgently?

Call the national team to discuss timing and availability. An urgent enquiry does not guarantee a placement. Website forms and general enquiry channels are not emergency services.
