Why Choose Life Care Solutions for SIL in Fawkner?
Choosing an SIL provider is an important decision for participants and families. You want to know that your support provider understands your needs, communicates clearly and respects your choices.
Life Care Solutions is an NDIS registered provider in Melbourne, delivering personalised disability support services designed around individual goals and needs. Our existing Fawkner service information also highlights Supported Independent Living alongside accommodation and respite services.
Our approach is centred around:
- Person-centred support
- Qualified and experienced support workers
- Individualised support arrangements
- Respect for participant choice and dignity
- Safety and quality
- Community participation
- Building confidence and independence
- Clear communication with participants and families
We understand that changing where you live can be a significant life decision. Our team aims to make the process easier by listening to what matters to you and discussing your available support options.
Living Independently Doesn't Mean Living Without Support
Moving into Supported Independent Living can be an important step towards greater independence.
For some participants, independence may mean learning to prepare their own meals. For someone else, it may mean managing a household routine, making decisions about their day, developing social confidence, or accessing the community more independently.
SIL is not about taking away choices. It is about providing the right support to help you exercise your choices and build your skills.
The NDIS distinguishes SIL from the accommodation itself: SIL relates to the support workers who assist you, while rent and ordinary living costs are generally separate.
Is Supported Independent Living in Fawkner Right for You?
SIL may be suitable for NDIS participants who require a high level of support at home and need assistance or supervision throughout the day and night. The NDIS notes that SIL can support people with higher support needs with activities such as personal care, cooking, eating and household tasks.
However, SIL is not automatically the right option for everyone.
Your NDIS plan, support needs, goals and living preferences should all be considered when exploring home and living options. If you are unsure whether SIL is suitable, you can discuss your circumstances with your NDIS contact, treating health professional or other relevant support professionals.
