Here on the Gold Coast Direct Care Services (DCR) employ youth workers on massive wages to stay with children who are DoCS kids in motels/hotels and apartment buildings and they move every 2 weeks to another place. DoCS pays for the accommodation and food for these children.

We also have Safe Places for Kids who have a similar situation for DoCS children, but they actually rent private homes and deck them out with appliances, furniture and all other stuff and the child (one child only) resides there with one youth worker.
