Spinal Cord Injuries Australia recognises that transitioning to a home environment from a clinical rehabilitation setting is one of the biggest steps a person will make post injury. Our short term accommodation, in Perth, provides a real life modified home environment, giving the person with an injury and their family, the opportunity to become familiar with activities of daily living, identifying independence capabilities and potential home modification options.

This accommodation is fitted with quality modifications, close to transport and in a relaxing setting that allows you to reconnect with family and friends as well as achieve your personal goals and build confidence for the future. Click on the gallery to view photographs.

SCIA’s short and medium term accommodation is available to all clients with a spinal cord injury.

To make an enquiry about the accommodation, please complete the online application form. A team member will respond to your enquiry within three working days to discuss availability and booking procedures. SCIA’s short term accommodation is available through the NDIS, iCare and other insurance plans and a service / booking agreement is required. If you have a Transition Skills Package a Peer and Family Support Coordinator will also work with you to develop your personalised skills development timetable.

The accommodation package offers a relaxing, safe and real-life environment to assess capabilities and needs.

Additionally the Transition Skills Package can assist people to understand possibilities and opportunities, potential levels of self-management and care needs and how this can work in a home environment. By connecting with a SCIA Peer, participants can develop social confidence and improve adjustment and well-being.
