SDA and BlueCHP*
Bayley House has been working since NDIS transition to find a way forward to deliver more and better housing/accommodation options for our present and future clients. The separation in the NDIS model of housing (SDA) and support (SIL) provides Bayley House with the opportunity to achieve this.
One such opportunity is a collaboration with BlueCHP, a housing provider aligned with our core values and has a long-term commitment to people with disabilities. SDA homes provided by BlueCHP will be staffed and supported by the Bayley House team delivering the high standards of (SIL) support you expect from Bayley House.

Customised to your needs
IMPROVED LIVEABILITY – Homes designed for Improved Liveability help provide a reasonable level of physical access for people living with sensory, intellectual or cognitive needs.
Improved Livability homes are designed to help residents live safely and independently. People with intellectual and cognitive needs might benefit from the use of contextual cues, improved lines of sight and consistency in the location of fittings and fixtures. Features like luminance contrasts or hearing augmentation can also be used to assist residents.
Designed to fit in with the neighbourhood and offering plenty of opportunities for outdoor and social enjoyment, Improved Liveability homes support the particular needs of the residents and give them a home they can make their own.
FULLY ACCESSIBLE – A high level of physical access for individuals living with physical disabilities
HIGH PHYSICAL SUPPORT – Fully Accessible with extra structural provisions for things like ceiling hoists
