NDIS Short Term Accommodation (STA)—often called respite care—provides funding for a short break away from your usual home. At Planet Oasis, we call our short-term respite "Staycations" because we believe a break shouldn't feel clinical; it should feel like a genuine holiday. We offer a premium, holiday-style getaway in our beautifully furnished Eastern Suburbs homes, complete with 24/7 neuro-affirming support, local outings, and fun social nights.
What is NDIS Short Term Accommodation (STA), and how is a "Staycation" different?
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL), and how do you help young adults transition?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) provides you with the daily, in-home support you need to live as independently as possible. At Planet Oasis, we specialise in helping neurodiverse youth and young adults confidently transition into SIL. We work collaboratively with you in our premium homes across Chirnside Park, Kilsyth, and Warrandyte to build everyday domestic skills—like cooking, cleaning, and personal care—so you can take control of your life on your terms.
Who do Planet Oasis and Planet Possible support?
We specialise in providing premium, neuro-affirming care for neurodiverse youth and young adults aged 12 to 35. Whether you are moving into one of our SIL homes, taking a "Staycation," or joining our hobby clubs, we intentionally match you with small, intimate groups of peers who share similar ages and interests to foster an environment of blooming friendships.
What is the difference between Planet Oasis and Planet Possible?
Planet Possible is our sister company and where our journey began in 2020! While Planet Oasis focuses on premium NDIS accommodation (like SIL and Short-Term Respite), Planet Possible provides our dynamic post-school day programs, hobby clubs, and community access services. Together, we provide a complete, seamless pathway to independence that grows alongside you.
Are your services truly built on lived experience?
Absolutely. Our entire organisation was founded to support the neurodiverse individuals within our own family and local community. We understand your journey because we live it every day. This lived experience means we only provide the exact same high-quality, loving care and premium environments that we demand for our own loved ones.
How do I book a "Staycation" or find out about SIL vacancies?
Taking the next step is easy! Simply reach out to our friendly team via our Contact page. We would love to chat about your NDIS goals, discuss our current SIL vacancies in Melbourne's Outer East, or help you plan your very first premium "Staycation."
How do I apply for NDIS funding, and can you help?
Navigating the NDIS funding process can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to do it alone. Through our sister company, Planet Ability, our expert Occupational Therapists are here to guide you every step of the way. We can assist with comprehensive OT assessments, funding applications, plan reviews, and the ongoing support you need to ensure you receive the exact funding required to achieve your SIL or respite goals.
