SIL Referral FormWhat is SIL?Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a new model of Supported Accommodation funded by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).SIL is generally for people living in shared supported arrangements. Participants living on their own, requiring 24/7 care, may also be eligible for SIL when it is required as a result of high support needs.Residents will receive support with everyday tasks like cleaning, cooking, and personal care. Other areas of support may be with:* maintaining a household.* building skills for shopping and cooking for healthy eating.* accessing local community groups & activities.* developing and maintaining connections with family and friends.* specialised behaviour support.Roshana Care Group works with a group of highly trained and experienced staff who can provide a safe and supportive environment in our supported homes.Who is SIL for?Our SIL services are suitable for people between the ages of 18 and 65 who live with a psychosocial- disability. Our residents are encouraged and supported to live as independently as possible. Each resident will have an individually tailored program of supports, depending on their needs and how they want to live their life.
