Who is eligible for a TimeOut stay?
TimeOut Stays are available to individuals who have been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer (including metastatic, advanced stage, multiple locations or with a poor outlook) or an incurable illness.
TimeOut define an incurable illness as a condition that is progressive, cannot be cured, and is expected to limit life expectancy to five years or less.
As part of the application process, we require verification of diagnosis. This can be a recent specialist report or a letter from your GP, registered medical practitioner, registered nurse practitioner or registered clinical nurse specialist. The document needs to be signed and dated within the last 6 months.
Please note that if the recipient’s health declines and they are no longer able to go on the TimeOut Stay, the booking will be postponed or cancelled. We encourage applicants to keep this in mind when making additional arrangements, such as travel.
