SDA with OSS is purpose-built housing designed for accessibility, offering private apartments with shared support services to assist residents with daily tasks and unexpected needs.
OSS provides flexible, ad-hoc assistance for unplanned situations, such as technology issues, medication support, or urgent help, while still allowing residents to maintain independence.
OSS is available for NDIS participants living in SDA or shared accommodations who require occasional assistance with personal care, household tasks, or community participation.
OSS offers help with daily tasks, evening check-ins, medication reminders, technology troubleshooting, social event setup, and urgent situations requiring immediate attention.
Support is prioritised using a triage system: urgent requests are addressed immediately, while non-urgent needs may take up to an hour.
You can contact the OSS team via phone, text, or by visiting the OSS unit.
