Guest Houses

As part of our commitment to putting our customer’s at the center of everything we do, Rocky Bay has secured funding which allows us to offer emergency respite (at no charge) to eligible customers.  

This support is available during unexpected situations, when your funding has ended, or while waiting for a new plan. It provides a break during challenging times and relieves caregivers, knowing their loved ones are in safe hands with our guest house teams.

To be eligible you must be over 18 years old and fit one or more of the following criteria;  

• Have a disability, whether eligible for NDIS or not.
• Be an NDIS Participant without respite funding/flexible core funding in your plan.
• Have an NDIS plan where respite funding is exhausted and waiting for a new plan or increase in plan.

This funding is only available at our Rocky Bay guest houses locations; 

• The Bush Retreat in Beeliar  
• The Country House in Gosnells  
• The Beach House in Rockingham 
• Parkland Retreat in Noranda 

Or in your home with a Rocky Bay support worker.

For further information and to see if you may be eligible for this funding,  contact (08) 6282 1900 or email [email protected]. Please note that emergency respite is not crisis care. 

You can access our respite guest houses through your NDIS plan, emergency respite funding or fee for service. For more information on funding options, please call our friendly Customer Engagement Team on (08) 6282 1900.
