Is SIL Included in My NDIS Plan?

Yes, Supported Independent Living (SIL) can be included in your NDIS plan if it is determined that you require assistance to live independently. The NDIS funding for SIL is allocated based on your individual needs, and the level of support provided will depend on the complexity of your needs and goals.

To determine if SIL should be included in your NDIS plan management, your NDIS planner will assess your current abilities and your level of independence.

Supported Independent Living Application Process

The process for applying for Supported Independent Living (SIL) begins with the NDIS planning meeting. Here’s how the process typically works:

Initial NDIS Planning

During your planning meeting with the NDIS, your goals, needs, and current support requirements will be discussed. If SIL is deemed appropriate for your needs, your NDIS planner will include it in your plan.

Assessment of Needs

An assessment of your daily living needs will take place to determine what level of support you require. This includes evaluating your ability to manage personal care, household tasks, and social participation.

Choosing SIL Providers

Once SIL funding is included in your NDIS plan, you will need to choose a provider that offers SIL services. We offer tailored SIL support, working closely with you to ensure that your unique needs are met.

Service Agreement and Implementation

After selecting a provider, a service agreement will be created. This outlines the level of support, the goals you aim to achieve, and the services provided. Once the agreement is signed, services can be implemented, and support will begin.

Reviewing and Adjusting Your Plan

The NDIS plan is reviewed regularly. If necessary, adjustments can be made to the level of SIL support you receive to ensure your needs are continuously met.

NDIS registered provider

As a registered NDIS provider, we are fully compliant with all NDIS standards, with a strong focus on person-centred support. This includes adhering to the NDIS Practice Standards and Code of Conduct. These promote safe and ethical service delivery, and the conduct of our support workers.
