The purpose of SIL Accommodation

One of the NDIS funding categories that offer services to individuals with disabilities is supported independent living. Independent support living is a particular sort of help only available to individuals who qualify. People with disabilities are given these aids. These services are for those who require support around-the-clock while residing in a shared home. Disabled individuals receive Supported Independent Living support while they live with others. Many persons with impairments cannot live independently and need services for daily living. 

Under these programmes, people with impairments will receive assistance with daily duties, including cooking, cleaning, and personal care. Along with helping persons with disabilities live more comfortably, SIL also assists them in enhancing their life skills. SIL permits households with between two and seven occupants, each of whom will have their room. People with disabilities can speak with others and develop their social skills because of SIL.

What Types Of Support Does Sil Offer At What Levels?

Each person with a physical or mental handicap is unique; thus, their assistance will likewise differ from those of others with similar disabilities. The SIL offers support at three levels depending on the individual’s support needs. The three various degrees of support are listed below.

• Lessen needs- Some services are not available around-the-clock like housing oversight.
• Everyday needs- under this, help is offered around the clock. Under this, people are given support and supervision over daily duties to live comfortably and efficiently complete tasks.
• Higher needs- under this, active help is offered around the clock. Also, they provide nightly assistance for these needs. It entails controlling behaviours that call for service and support for constructive activity. These are the needs categories that assisted independent living offers support for.

What Is Covered By Supported Independent Living?

• Taking care of oneself includes dressing and moving into or out of bed.
• Preparing meals
• Help with chores around the house, such as cleaning and food shopping
• Tasks involved in maintaining a home
• Assistance with navigation

Choose A Place To Call Home

The level of assistance needed to live autonomously in the accommodation option of your choice determines how much SIL money goes into an NDIS Plan. You may live in and get SIL funding in:

• A place to rent
• Your own home or a residence that your family has acquired for you to reside in Specialized Disability Accommodation (SDA) 
• Provider-managed housing in a public or non-profit building.
• SIL is suitable for shared housing situations with two to seven residents, with costs split among numerous NDIS members.

Application For Sil Funding

You will meet with an NDIS coordinator or a LAC after receiving your NDIS funding. You will receive the funding based on your disability and get assistance based on how important it is to require it. You will receive the SIL funding if your requirements are very high.

The Assistance, A Help Coordinator, Can Provide

Support Coordination helps you connect with the community, make the most of your plan, and establish connections with NDIS-accredited supporters and carers. They can also give you access to unofficial resources. They are also excellent at helping you when you apply for SIL financing. They match you up with the finest SIL Provider for your requirements, ask for the correct balance for services, or locate alternative community services and organisations that can best assist you in living independently.
