Safe and Supportive STA for Women

Need a break, a reset, or a safe place to stay short term?

Our warm, women-only NDIS STA home in Cranbourne offers comfort, calm, and 24/7 support and is designed for women aged 20 and over living with psychosocial disability or complex mental health needs.

What Is STA?

Short Term Accommodation (STA) is NDIS-funded support that offers a break from daily routines whether for rest, recovery, or urgent care. But at Care With Dignity, it’s more than just a bed for the night. It’s stability. It’s breathing room. It’s care that begins the moment you walk through the door.

Our STA is thoughtfully designed for women who need calm, consistent support in a space that feels like home and not a facility. Whether you’re navigating psychosocial disability, mental health challenges, or simply need space to reset, our team is here to make that transition smooth, personal, and safe.

With just three participants at a time and a small, trusted care team on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every stay is grounded in warmth, predictability, and dignity because short-term support should never feel short on care.
