Ability WA is partnering with quality and trusted Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) providers to offer more choice about where and how you live. With Ability WA and our SDA partners you can combine a new purpose-built home – designed for function, comfort, and control – with quality living supports to give you the confidence to reach your goals and live your way.
To be eligible for SDA, you must have
- Extreme functional impairment - you need lots of support from someone with many of your daily tasks such as moving around at home, your personal care, meal preparation, or looking after yourself. This is in addition to any assistive technology or home modifications; and/or
- Very high support needs - you need a lot of one-on-one support, for a significant part of the day from paid support workers.
If you are not eligible for SDA, Ability WA has many other housing options you may be able to access with our Community Housing providers.

Our range of partnerships with trusted SDA and Community Housing providers means we have access to a diverse range of high-quality NDIS housing options across Perth.

Once you’ve moved in, your team will continue to build a strong and honest relationship with you to understand how you like to be supported and your vision for how you want to live.
If you need assistance to maintain your health, our Support Workers are trained in basic wound care, most forms of medication administration and enteral feeding. We have a team of Enrolled Nurses and Registered Nurses who can visit your home or work daily to meet your health needs. Our Therapist, Dieticians, Social Workers, and Positive Behaviour Support Clinicians are also on hand to support you.

If you’d like to continue living on your own or with family but just need some assistance with day-to-day living tasks, our Access Program can help. A Support Worker can come to your home and provide assistance with personal care, shopping, paying bills, cooking, cleaning, going to appointments, running errands and accessing your community. We usually recommend having a team of at least two regular Support Workers, as that way when one staff has time off, the other team member can still assist you. Having this support might mean you can continue living independently or with family for as long as you like, in your own community. We can even provide a vehicle to access your community if you choose. Support is provided for a minimum 4-hour period.
We’re here to help!
