How to check a provider's credentials

Carevo lists the registration details a provider reports and links you to the official Australian registers so you can confirm them before referring a participant. Here is what each listing shows and where to verify it.

NDIS registration

Listings show whether a provider reports being NDIS registered. You can confirm a provider's current registration and approved support types yourself on the NDIS Commission's public provider register.

Aged care approval

Listings show aged care approval where it is recorded. You can check a provider's current approval and the services they deliver on the Australian Government's My Aged Care find a provider service.

ABN you can check

Most listings include the provider's Australian Business Number, shown on the profile. You can look it up on the Australian Business Register to confirm the business is registered and active.

About Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is purpose-built or modified housing for NDIS participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. SDA is the building itself, funded separately from the support staff (SIL). Only about 6% of NDIS participants qualify for SDA funding. Four design categories exist: Improved Liveability, Fully Accessible, Robust, and High Physical Support.

With 986 providers across all states and territories, specialist disability accommodation (sda) is a specialist registration group. Provider availability varies by location, so check suburb-level results for accurate coverage.

What Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) Covers

The Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) registration group includes the following services. When referring, match the specific service type to the participant's plan goals and funded line items.

Improved Liveability

Housing designed for participants with sensory, intellectual, or cognitive disabilities. Features include simplified layouts, good lighting, visual cues, and technology-assisted living. Lowest SDA payment level.

Fully Accessible

Housing designed for wheelchair users. Wider doorways, accessible bathrooms, ramped or level entry, and wheelchair-height benchtops. The most common SDA design category.

Robust

Housing designed to withstand impact damage from participants with complex behaviours. Reinforced walls, durable fixtures, and reduced breakable elements. Suitable for participants who may cause property damage during episodes.

High Physical Support

Housing with the highest level of physical modifications: ceiling hoists, automated doors, adjustable-height benchtops, emergency power supply, and smart home technology. For participants with the most significant physical support needs.

Common Referral Scenarios

Real-world situations where you would refer a participant for specialist disability accommodation (sda).

1.

A participant with quadriplegia needs High Physical Support SDA with ceiling hoists in all rooms. Register them on the SDA Finder portal, contact SDA providers directly, and check with the NDIA about SDA funding in their plan.

2.

A participant with ASD and an intellectual disability would benefit from Improved Liveability SDA but does not currently have SDA funding. Prepare evidence for a plan review requesting SDA, including OT assessment of housing needs and evidence that current housing is not meeting their needs.

3.

A participant's current SDA property is being sold by the landlord. They need to find alternative SDA in the same area within 3-6 months. Start searching immediately as SDA vacancies are scarce.

What to Expect After Referral

SDA is the most difficult NDIS support to access. Only about 6% of NDIS participants qualify for SDA funding. The process involves demonstrating extreme functional impairment or very high support needs, obtaining an SDA needs assessment (usually from an OT), and getting SDA included in the participant's plan. Finding a vacancy can take months or years depending on the design category and location.

Red Flags to Watch For

Warning signs that a specialist disability accommodation (sda) provider may not be delivering quality services.

SDA provider not maintaining the property to the required standard

SDA payments not matching the enrolled design category

Provider pressuring participant to accept a property that does not meet their needs

SDA property not meeting the registered design specifications

Provider restricting participant's choice of SIL provider within the SDA property

SDA is the building. SIL is the support staff inside it. Most SDA participants also have SIL funding. SDA also works with Assistive Technology (for equipment installed in the property), Home Modifications (for minor modifications beyond the SDA design), and Therapeutic Supports (for therapy delivered in the home environment).

How to Refer a Participant for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)

Step 1

Check plan funding in Category 6

Step 2

Verify provider registration status

Step 3

Find providers in participant's suburb

Step 4

Set up service agreement with line items

Step 5

Monitor delivery and document outcomes

Referral Tips for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)

SDA is the hardest NDIS support to access. Confirm the participant actually has SDA funding in their plan before searching for vacancies. Check the SDA design category and building type specified in the plan. Most SDA has long waitlists. Register the participant on the SDA Finder portal and contact providers directly about upcoming vacancies. Coordinate with SIL providers early, as most SDA requires a matched SIL arrangement.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find SDA vacancies in Australia?

Check the NDIS SDA Finder tool at housing.ndis.gov.au, contact SDA providers listed on this page directly, and register the participant's interest with multiple providers. SDA vacancies are scarce in most areas, so casting a wide net across nearby suburbs improves your chances.

What is the difference between the four SDA design categories?

Improved Liveability suits participants with sensory, intellectual, or cognitive disabilities. Fully Accessible is for wheelchair users. Robust is designed to withstand impact for participants with complex behaviours. High Physical Support includes ceiling hoists, automated doors, and emergency power for participants with the highest physical support needs.

Can I refer an NDIA-managed participant to an unregistered provider?

No. NDIA-managed participants can only use NDIS registered providers. Plan-managed and self-managed participants can use both registered and unregistered providers.

How do I check if a provider is NDIS registered?

Check the NDIS Provider Register at provider.ndis.gov.au. Search by provider name or ABN. Providers listed on Carevo display their registration status on their profile.

What information should I include when making a referral?

Include the participant's name (with consent), NDIS plan number, relevant line items, budget available, service frequency, specific requirements (cultural, language, gender preference), and your contact details.
