Supported Independent Living
Support to live in a home of your choice, with the right help for daily routines, personal care, household tasks and community life.
Overview
What this support means.
Supported Independent Living, often called SIL, is funded support for people who need help at home throughout the day. It can be delivered in a shared home or another suitable living arrangement. The home and support are considered separately, so the focus stays on what the person needs to live well.
Support may include
- Daily routines and personal care
- Meal preparation and household tasks
- Medication assistance within the support plan
- Building confidence and everyday living skills
- Community access and maintaining relationships
- Overnight and 24/7 support where funded
