What SIL includes
SIL supports are built around each resident's needs and goals, and may include:
- Personal care and self-care assistance
- Domestic assistance
- Skill development and life skills building
- Community access
- 1:1 or shared supports for participants with higher care needs
Stability, safety and independence
Whether a participant prefers greater independence or the opportunity to build skills and social connections in a shared home, our accommodation supports are designed to promote safety, stability and everyday independence.
Our SIL homes are supported by small, consistent, well-trained teams with Registered Nurse oversight and a 24/7 on-call service — and behaviour support and psychology sit in-house, so clinical help is never far away. We provide SIL services across Newcastle.
Common questions
How is SIL different from ILO?
SIL provides ongoing (often 24/7) support in a shared home. Individualised Living Options (ILO) is a more flexible package built around your own living arrangement — for example living alone with drop-in support, or with a host. We offer both and can help you work out which fits.
