ACCOMMODATION
(STA)
Your Home Away From Home
FLIP provides Short Term Accommodation (STA) and is a safe and secure environment to take some time out from daily life. Our highly qualified and friendly support staff are here to provide a large range of activities in a safe, supportive and inclusive environment where you can learn life skills, make new connections, and build your independence.
Short Term Accommodation with FLIP
We provide Short Term Accommodation (respite) at a lovely home in Palmerston. Our STA placement caters for people of all ages with experienced staff to make your stay pleasant and comfortable. Our short term visitors can stay with us for just a few days, but they can stay from a few weeks up to however long they need support. This depends on the needs and circumstances of each person’s circumstances and placement availability.
How can respite help?
Palmerston clients come to respite for several reasons: to have a holiday, to take a break from regular carers, or to use the facilities as a stepping stone towards independent living. Respite can really make a difference to the quality of life for all members of a family living with disability.
