frequently ask question

SIL (Supported Independent Living) provides 24/7 or scheduled support with daily living tasks in a shared or individual home, while regular disability accommodation only provides the physical housing. SIL funding covers your support workers who help with personal care, household tasks, and skill development. In Perth, SIL properties are located in accessible areas near public transport and community facilities.

SIL funding varies based on your support needs assessment. In Perth, typical weekly SIL funding ranges from $650 (10-15 hours light support) to $4,000+ (60+ hours high support). The funding covers support worker costs at approximately $65-85 per hour depending on timing and complexity. Your funding is determined during NDIS planning meetings based on your goals and assessed needs.

Absolutely! Perth SIL providers should involve you in the housemate matching process. You'll typically meet potential housemates before moving in, and providers consider personality compatibility, lifestyle preferences, support needs, and shared interests. Many Perth SIL participants develop lifelong friendships with their housemates and actively participate in choosing who joins their home.

SIL properties are available across Perth metro including Joondalup, Fremantle, Midland, Rockingham, Armadale, and Stirling areas. The "best" location depends on your preferences for proximity to family, community connections, public transport access, and local amenities. Many Perth SIL providers have multiple properties allowing you to choose your preferred suburb and community environment.

Quality Perth SIL providers have processes to address housemate conflicts through mediation, house meetings, and if necessary, alternative accommodation arrangements. Most issues are resolved through communication and compromise, but you shouldn't stay in an unsuitable living situation. Providers typically maintain waiting lists and can offer moves to more compatible living arrangements.

Yes! Your SIL home is your home, and you have the right to have visitors including family and friends. Each Perth SIL property will have reasonable house rules about visitors (like advance notice for overnight guests), but these shouldn't restrict your important relationships. Many participants regularly host family barbecues, celebrations, and social gatherings.

24/7 support varies by your funding level and assessed needs. Some Perth participants have overnight staff present, others have sleepover support, and some have on-call emergency support. All Perth SIL providers should have emergency response procedures with staff available within 30 minutes for urgent situations. The level of overnight support is specified in your NDIS plan.

Perth SIL providers typically offer gradual transition support including respite stays, day visits to meet housemates, family meetings, and staged move-in processes. Many families start with Short Term Accommodation (STA) to trial independent living. The transition usually takes 2-4 weeks with support workers helping you settle in and adjust to your new routine and environment.

Your SIL provider works with you and your Support Coordinator to manage plan changes. If funding increases, you might access additional supports or activities. If funding decreases, providers help adjust services while maintaining your accommodation stability. Perth SIL providers are experienced in plan transitions and work to ensure continuity of your living arrangement through plan changes.

Pet policies vary by Perth SIL provider and specific property. Many providers welcome pets, especially if they provide emotional support or companionship. You'll need to discuss pet ownership during the application process, ensure any pets are suitable for shared living, and meet property requirements like pet deposits or additional cleaning arrangements.
