Yellowbird Wellbeing: Supporting Our Community

Yellowbird Wellbeing is a dedicated disability and community support provider.

Originally established in 2002, Yellowbird Wellbeing has evolved into what it is today under the ownership and leadership of local Occupational Therapist Todd Clarke and his wife, Psychologist Tracy Clarke. Their passion for supporting individuals with disabilities has shaped the organization into a trusted provider of NDIS-registered services.

The Clarke family has deep roots in Kempsey and remains proud of their local heritage. Todd, who grew up in Kempsey, along with Tracy and their children, frequently return to the area. In 2024, they expanded their commitment to the community by purchasing a home in Crescent Head, allowing Yellowbird Wellbeing to grow and offer locally owned respite services, behavior support, occupational therapy, and psychological functional assessments.

As part of our ongoing commitment to the community, we want to employ local staff to facilitate NDIS respite services at Little Tern Beach House.

Adios Amigos!! Sadly we are calling time on our incredible La Costa Cantina Journey of 5 Summers in Crescent Head and will be closing our doors on the 23rd of February.

We genuinely appreciate all of the patronage & support from our community we call home and visitors over the last 5 summers. It has been a blast, we’ve made so many memories and plenty of friends along this journey. We’d love to go out with a bang and we have an Epic final weekend planned. We have our favourite 3piece Mariachi legends Latin Vibes performing Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd. Freddy and the boys are the definition of a party. Come down either night, have some final Margs tacos and help us say Adios in style!!
 
Gracias Kristen & Tristan La Costa

The NDIS have updated the timeline for the release of the new STA operational guideline

“We know there are still some questions about what can be claimed under STA, particularly if you want to use a hotel or other accommodation options. A new operational guideline about STA will be available in early 2025 with more information.”

Yellowbird eagerly awaits this release so we can advise our loyal exisiting clientele, networks and new interested parties in renting our beautifully renovated beach house for their individually designed respite stays using their NDIS funding.

As soon as we become away of its release, we review and advise how we will proceed.

NDIS Respite Short-Term Accommodation: Little Tern Beach House @ Crescent Head

Note: Not wheelchair accessible. 10 stairs

Set to open for NDIS respite stays in February 2025, our property offers a structured environment to help you build essential skills with support.

Prime beach Location:
* Only a 200m walk to the beach, tavern, supermarket, and country club.

House Features:
* No-step shower in brand new bathroom with slip-rated floor tiles.
* Brand new kitchen.
* Two toilets, 1 indoor & 1 outdoor shower, laundry with front-load washer and dryer.
* Hardwood polished floors with a vintage beach vibe, freshly painted.

* Spotted gum decking with live edge bar.
* Outdoor lounge seating.
* Covered carport with lockable storage for bikes and surfboards.

Indoor Comfort:

* Bedroom 3: double bed with lux mattress

(Bedroom 2 & 3 are for participant and support worker use). This layout ensures that both participant and their support staff have their own private sleeping spaces for maximum comfort.

This Is Not a Holiday, this is respite to give you and your regular informal carers a break, but no one said your respite could not be in one of the best beach towns and luxury accommodation in the area.

Additional equipment hire options include: permobil MD300 or mobility scooter to assist those who cannot ambulate sufficiently around the community. Ask for any other equipment you may need, we may just have it in stock and be able to include for you.

This respite is 1:1 only. Dependent on new Operational guidelines yet to be released this month by the NDIS, it may be possible to rent our accommodation and build your own respite package with your own staff. We can also offer your staff to operate as contractors to enable you to use your own staff for your respite if building your own respite is not possible independently. So do not hesitate to ask us of the various options available to you.

Although we are awaiting the release of the new STA guideline, some initial impacts are: As Yellowbird delivers only 1:1 support, the following changes will apply starting from 01/01/2025 when Yellowbird are delivering the respite package:

1. **Meals**: Meals can no longer be included as part of your 1:1 STA funding. A flat rate charge of $60 per day will be invoiced for payment. This will cover 3 meals and snacks per 24hrs. (You may also choose to go shopping for your own food to cook with support, bring your food with you or even eat out for all meals. The choice is yours as this is separate to your NDIS funding).

2. **Activities**: Participants will need to bring adequate funds to pay for any paid activities they wish to participate in. Ensure you bring your carer's companion card; otherwise, you will need to cover the cost of the activity for both yourself and the support worker supporting you. The beauty of staying at Little Tern Beach House you have close access to the beach and community.

3. **Transport**: Pick-up and drop-off are no longer included within your STA funding. You will need to be dropped off and collected. Any transport during your stay is charged per km to either your transport or social/community core budget or privately invoiced.
