What is Supported Independent Living?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a type of NDIS support designed to help people with disabilities live as independently as possible while receiving the daily support they need.

At Peace of Mind, our support independent living Melbourne services ensure participants have the assistance required with everyday tasks, personal care, and developing life skills, all while enjoying the comfort and freedom of their own home.

More About Us

What Is Supported Independent Living (SIL) Under the NDIS?

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a NDIS-funded support designed to help people with disability live as independently as possible while receiving ongoing assistance with everyday activities. Rather than focusing solely on care, SIL emphasises skill development, routine building, and appropriate supervision to support long-term independence, safety, and wellbeing. What SIL covers under the NDIS includes:
  • Support with personal care, daily routines, and household tasks
  • Assistance with cooking, cleaning, shopping, and meal preparation
  • Help developing independent living skills such as budgeting and planning
  • Support with medication routines and health management (as required)
  • Overnight supervision or active support, depending on assessed needs
  • Support to build social skills and participate in community life
It is important to note that SIL funding does not cover everyday living expenses such as rent, groceries, utilities, or personal costs, which remain the participant’s responsibility.
SIL is best suited for adults with moderate to high support needs who want to live independently in shared or individual accommodation, while receiving consistent, structured daily support aligned with their NDIS goals.

How Supported Independent Living Works

Supported Independent Living (SIL) begins with a detailed assessment of your goals, abilities, preferences, and daily support requirements. We work closely with you, your family, and your support coordinator to gain a clear understanding of the level of assistance needed to help you live safely, confidently, and as independently as possible. This collaborative approach ensures your supports are person-centred and aligned with your NDIS goals.
Once SIL funding is approved, we develop a tailored support plan that clearly outlines daily routines, staffing hours, and individual skill-building goals. Supports may include morning and evening assistance, active daytime support, overnight supervision, or 24/7 support, depending on your assessed needs and living arrangement. The focus remains on building capacity, maintaining safety, and supporting meaningful daily living.
Our team regularly reviews and monitors your supports to ensure they continue to meet your evolving needs. As your confidence, independence, or circumstances change,
nts within the home. This may include daytime support with personal routines, meals, household tasks, and activities, as well as evening assistance and overnight supervision. Where assessed as necessary, sleepover or active overnight support is provided, along with on-call escalation support to respond promptly to emergencies or unexpected situations.
Our support workers provide attentive supervision while actively encouraging independence and choice. They focus on supporting participants to develop skills, make decisions, and engage in daily life at their own pace. This balanced approach ensures participants feel safe, respected, and empowered, while maintaining a secure and well-managed SIL environment at all times

Safeguarding & Quality Standards

At Peace of Mind, safeguarding is central to our SIL services. We create environments that prioritise participant safety, dignity, and wellbeing while promoting independence. Our safeguarding practices include clear incident management and escalation procedures, along with risk assessments tailored to each participant’s needs and circumstances.
We promote behaviour support awareness and positive support strategies to reduce risk and respond appropriately, while always respecting participant rights, privacy, and individual choice. These practices are strengthened through ongoing staff training and regular supervision to ensure safe, consistent, and high-quality support.
We actively foster inclusive, respectful homes where participants feel secure and empowered to live independently.

Staffing & Overnight Support

At Peace of Mind, our staffing and overnight support arrangements are carefully designed to ensure participants feel safe, supported, and confident always within their Supported Independent Living environment. We provide appropriately trained and experienced support workers who are matched to each household based on individual needs, preferences, and support requirements.
Daytime and evening staffing focuses on assisting with personal routines, meals, household tasks, and skill development, while actively encouraging choice, independence, and participation in daily life. Overnight support is provided in line with assessed NDIS needs and may include sleepover support, active overnight supervision, or on-call escalation support to manage emergencies or unexpected situations promptly and effectively.
