We provide modern shared houses in safe neighbourhoods with support workers there to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Here are some significant SIL NDIS advantages:

1. Becoming self-sufficient:

Moving into your own space helps you make independent decisions and live the life you want. However, what if you require assistance to live independently? Life Care Solutions has skilled and trained professionals who can assist you with:

  • Personal hygiene, such as showering and dressing

2. Liberty and security:

Everyone must strike a balance between freedom and safety. While you will share the common spaces of the house with the other residents, your new bedroom will be your sanctuary. You will have the flexibility to arrange and decorate it as you see fit. A minimum of one support staff is on-site 24 hours a day to assist the residents. Our support workers are trained in reacting to emergencies and protecting the safety of house members.

While you may be excited about your new house and independence, you may also be concerned about being away from your family or caregiver.
