Understanding the Difference Between STA and MTA Accommodatio
Choosing the right accommodation is important for maintaining stability and independence. Short Term Accommodation (STA) and Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) serve different needs, but both provide essential support for individuals requiring temporary housing.
Why STA and MTA Are Important
These accommodation options offer more than just a place to stay—they provide:
- A safe and supportive environment for short-term or transitional needs
- Personalised care and assistance to suit individual requirements
- Access to community engagement and social activities
- Relief for families and carers, allowing them to take a break
- Smooth transitions to long-term housing, ensuring stability and peace of mind
STA (Short Term Accommodation) provides temporary housing with support, commonly used for respite care or during life transitions. It allows individuals to stay in a secure setting while their usual arrangements are unavailable.
MTA (Medium Term Accommodation) offers temporary housing for up to 90 days for those waiting for home modifications, a place in Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), or other long-term living solutions. It ensures individuals have the care they need while preparing for their next step.
