What is Supported Independent Living?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a tailored National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) service enabling a disabled individual to live independently to the best possible extent in a home setting. The objective of SIL is to enable a disabled individual to perform activities in a day-to-day manner, look after themselves, and be involved with society in a productive way, with a focus being put on choice and independence.

In SIL, disabled adults live in independent houses or shared houses and have professional support from a support worker team. The support can be adaptable, with services being personalized to suit each individual’s goals and requirements. SIL is designed to provide each individual with precisely what they require, be it assistance with household tasks, social activities, or hygiene. This allows clients to have as independent and rewarding a life as possible; with assistance to remain safe and healthy.

The types of support in SIL may vary from one individual to another and may involve such activities as cooking, shopping, budgeting and even health care and socialization. SIL does not imply to do it all for the individual; it implies to provide them with what they require and to enable them to do what they want to do and improve their quality of life.
