Supported Independent Living (SIL)
NDIS Supported Independent Living (SIL) funding empowers participants to live independently in their own homes with the support of qualified workers from Cocoon SDA Care.
Our primary goal is to provide assistance and supervision for daily tasks while fostering individual skill development. Typically, SIL involves shared living arrangements with several participants residing in a single home or building.
- Understanding SIL Funding:
Cocoon SDA Care provides support for a range of household activities, including:
- Meal preparation
- Personal care assistance (showering, dressing, toileting)
- Eligibility for SIL Funding:
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) considers several factors when determining SIL suitability for participants. These include:
- Alternative living options : Are there more appropriate living arrangements available?
- Current support : What level of support does the participant currently receive, and what are their person-to-person support needs?
- Funding criteria : Does the required support align with NDIS criteria for SIL funding?
- Future goals and independence : What are the participant’s aspirations for independent living, and what level of support is necessary to achieve daily task completion?
