SIL support in your own home

Your home is a personal space. Before agreeing to support, we'll talk about how you like things done, what you need help with and who you feel comfortable having around.

We'll look at the personal care, household tasks and daily routines in your support plan. The arrangement also needs to work for your household, funding, safety needs and available workers.

Supported independent living: frequently asked questions

Questions about SIL, funding and talking with our Adelaide team.

What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

SIL funds support for people who need help throughout the day and night. It can cover personal care, cooking, cleaning and daily routines. It's the support, not the rent or the home itself.

Who is SIL for?

SIL is one home and living option for people who need substantial daily and overnight support. Whether it's suitable and funded depends on the person's needs and the NDIA's decision.

How is SIL different from in-home support?

In-home support may be agreed visits for particular tasks. SIL is for a higher level of ongoing support, including overnight. They aren't interchangeable funding arrangements.

How do I get SIL funding in my NDIS plan?

The NDIA decides whether to fund SIL based on your support needs. Your NDIS contact or support coordinator can help with the process. We can explain what support Vana Care may be able to provide.

Can I choose where I live with SIL?

SIL is designed around the home and living arrangement approved in your plan. Vana Care checks the household, location, support needs, funding and worker availability before confirming whether we can provide the support.

How do I start SIL with Vana Care in Adelaide?

Call us on 08 7228 6202 or send an enquiry through our Get Support page. We will learn about your home, goals, risks, funding and support needs, then explain the assessment, matching and service-agreement steps. Start timing depends on the household, funding and suitable worker availability.
