Inside the home
Layout, features, and accessibility
Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is housing designed for people who need higher levels of physical support at home. SDA homes are constructed to be more accessible for you and any equipment or aids you require. They enable us to provide support to you safely and comfortably.
SDA aims to make accessing supports easier. For example, you might need a home with reinforced ceilings so you can use a ceiling hoist, or wider doorways for your wheelchair. SDA homes are fitted with these extra features, so all you need to do is move in and enjoy having your own space.
