What is Supported Independent Living?
Support Independent Living (SIL) is a form of community living in a shared house, with 24/7 assistance from Support Workers. The aim of SIL is to allow an individual who may have struggles living completely independently or lack support to be able to live a normal life, that incorporates all aspects of a person’s well-being and maintaining the feeling of ownership and ultimately empowerment over their lives; whilst still having assistance in areas that they may struggle in. Residents are screened to ensure harmony within the household, allowing you to form safe bonds and friendships where there is mutual respect and care for each other.
Ultimately the goal of SIL is to allow an individual the freedom to live in a modern, comfortable, and safe environment, that you can call Home and experience the freedom to do and explore the things that affirm your independence, individuality and ultimately ensure your health and happiness are supported within a secure homely environment.
