Short stay, long term happiness
29 October, 2024
Do you remember those first steps of moving out of home?
How did you feel? The mixed bag of nerves and excitement all while anticipating the new adventure in front of you. Well, Hayley did just that when she took to first steps towards her independence and tried a few nights at our short term accommodation.
This first short stay has been a long time in the making and the team at STA worked closely with Hayley and her family to make sure everything was right. Hayley arrived mid week settled in very easily to her room, complete with her own fridge, tv and gorgeous bay window. One element that made this important step so easy for Hayley, was that the staff could take her to and from Day Programs – just as she would if she were at home.
The whole experience was a huge success and one that Hayley looks forward to doing again. She admitted to having some nerves before she arrived but now that she has completed her first stay, Hayley is super encouraging of everyone giving it a go ‘Just give it a go’ she said ‘It’s really good.’
So if you would like to take Hayley’s advice and ‘Just give it a go’ get in touch with our Short Term Accommodation team to start opening the door on your independence.
