Supported Independent Living (SIL) in Australia is more than just a service, it’s a gateway to independence, choice, and a better quality of life for people living with a disability. At Wishing Well, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live life on their own terms, and SIL Australia programmes are designed to support just that.
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
SIL is an NDIS-funded support that helps participants live as independently as possible while still receiving the assistance they need with daily tasks. Whether it’s personal care, cooking, household chores, or developing life skills, SIL provides tailored support within a shared living environment or in individual arrangements. The goal is to create a balance between independence and care, promoting self-confidence and community involvement.
How Does SIL Work in Australia?
In Australia, SIL arrangements are flexible and person-centred. Each plan is unique and tailored to the individual’s needs, goals, and preferences. SIL homes are usually shared with other participants, allowing individuals to engage socially.
At Wishing Well, our experienced support workers are dedicated to creating a safe, comfortable, and empowering environment for each resident. We focus on enabling individuals to develop the skills they need to thrive, from budgeting and meal planning to travel training and personal development.
Is SIL the Right Choice for You or Your Loved One?
Choosing NDIS SIL Australia services can be life-changing, but it’s important to assess whether this support model suits your specific situation. SIL is ideal for individuals who:
Require regular assistance with daily living tasks
Are capable of living in a shared or supported environment
Want to enhance their independence and community engagement
Have an NDIS plan that includes SIL funding
