Host Home
An independent living arrangement or an alternative to centre-based respite.
Host Home sources and engages Host families who share their home with people with disabilities and older people.
People are embraced as part of the Host’s family and community, while receiving the right level of skilled support.
Host Home is also offered as an alternative to centre-based respite as one-off or short-term.
Why choose Staffing Options?
