Imagine living in a place where you can grow your skills, build independence, and be part of a vibrant community - Our Supported Independent Living service is here to help you achieve just that. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or a loved one, our tailored disability support services ensure you can thrive in a home environment while gaining the confidence and abilities to live independently.
Our Supported Independent Living services start with the participant's goals and desires, with supports are designed around them, ensuring each person has choice and control over the services they receive. For example, participants have the freedom to personalise their rooms to reflect their style.
We offer SIL accommodation in our accessible homes located in Bunbury, Western Australia, and can extend these tailored supports to the participant's permanent home, providing active support within their everyday environment.
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) support service designed for people living with a disability who have higher support needs, helping them live daily life as independently as possible.
SIL participants may require support with a range of various tasks, from personal care and cooking meals to accessing public transport or other informal supports. Whether living in their own home or in shared disability accommodation with other NDIS participants, SIL provides tailored assistance to meet each individual's unique needs.
The NDIS determines funding by assessing a participants level of support and roster of care. Other factors like medical records and talking with participants and primary carer are also considered.
To determine funding, the NDIS will use a participants roster of care in combination with conversations with the individual, family, carers and medical or allied health records.
SIL funding is divided into three levels based on the required support and the number of residents in the shared setting. The levels are:

We provide:
We focus on increasing independence, enhancing capacity, and building essential skills. For example, we help participants develop core skills around household tasks, such as cooking, cleaning, and other daily activities. Additionally, we offer opportunities for social interaction and community involvement, such as attending local events, joining clubs, and participating in volunteer work. These activities help strengthen connections and build meaningful relationships within the community.
Community Capacity Building is central to our culture, fostering unity and connection among participants, staff and the community. We offer a variety of activities tailored to individual needs, including:
Shared experiences like team outings and weekly roast nights strengthen bonds and enhance skills, confidence, and community engagement. Our goal is to foster wellbeing, connection, and purpose, empowering participants to live fulfilling lives with the right supports tailored to their individual needs.
We prioritise the importance of a balanced diet for overall health and well-being. As part of our service offering, we offer nutritious meals prepared with high quality ingredients and can cater for modified diets. This includes breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner. We encourage and assist participants with menu planning, focusing on nutrition while respecting their preferences and dietary requirements.
Additionally, where reasonable, we offer support and encourage participants to prepare meals together, increasing their capacity in the kitchen by using various equipment and develop their skills. Our goal is to empower participants to make healthy choices independently and enjoy their meals fully.
We offer transport services to assist participants to live independently whilst ensuring safe and accessible travel for everyday needs, activities, and appointments. Our reliable pick-up and drop-off services to and from Perth are here to help, from facilitating your transition by picking you up from your own home to ensuring you can visit family and friends.
Additionally, we can accompany you on public transportation, offering orientation and training as needed. Our goal is to enhance your independence, facilitate community participation, and ensure you have the accessibility to your supports.
We place the participant at the heart of everything we do. Our approach ensures that personalised care plans (PCP) are developed in collaboration with the participant, primary carer, families, and support coordinator. Our detailed PCP empowers participants to actively exercise choice and control, engaging them in decisions regarding their care and support needs, promoting autonomy and dignity every step of the way.
Our team of highly trained professionals provides 24/7 specialised support, ensuring that your loved one receives the highest quality of care at all times. From overnight stays to short stays and extended stays, we are equipped to meet various needs and durations.
We craft our SIL services with empathy and understanding, aiming to provide a safe and supportive environment where participants can thrive. We recognise the importance of finding a place that feels like home, where your loved one can feel comfortable and cared for.
Our team are experienced and compassionate professionals, who are committed to providing the highest level of care. We take the time to understand your needs and preferences, ensuring you feel deeply understood and truly at home.
