Supported Independent Living Adelaide (SIL)
Start living life your way, with the support you deserve 24/7.
Scarlet Homecare’s supported independent living services Adelaide are designed to help individuals with disabilities thrive in daily life by supporting their individual needs in a safe environment. Supported independent living involves shared accommodation in SIL houses, where individuals receive support for a range of activities, such as cleaning, laundry, cooking, showering, dressing, taking medication, participating in hobbies, and engaging with the community.
SIL is available to participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and is best suited for individuals who have high expectations for day-to-day assistance and require active support to comfortably and independently live in an environment they can call their own home.

Aboslutely delightful to deal with! I’m a support coordinator and I can feel assured that Sobhan has lined up the perfect support worker for my clients. 10 out of 10 times my clients will tell me how great the service was. If you or your client needs support, I’d recommend Scarlet Homecare every day of hte week.

As a support coordinator I have engaged Scarlet Home Care for the support of several of my clients and have found them to be highly professional, client-focused, caring, extremely reliable and pro-active in their services and supports. I would definitely recommend them going forward, and particularly for clients with complex support needs.

Do you charge mileage?

How do I receive independent living funding?
To receive independent living funding, you first need to be eligible for the NDIS and have goals related to living independently in your NDIS plan. The NDIS offers various types of support, including Supported Independent Living (SIL), tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. For detailed eligibility requirements, application processes, and to explore your options, visit the official NDIS website at ndis.gov.au or speak with your Local Area Coordinator.
What's the difference between Supported Independent Living (SIL) and Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)?
SIL (Supported Independent Living) refers to assistance with daily tasks provided by support workers, including personal care, household tasks, and community participation. SIL can be very well suited to young people seeking to make meaningful connections with others and live independently in a supportive environment. SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) refers to specially designed and built housing for people with disabilities, featuring accessibility modifications and assistive technology such as wheelchair ramps and accessible bathrooms. You can have SIL support without SDA, SDA without SIL, or both, depending on your needs. You can also benefit from other NDIS supports, such as positive behaviour support, as well as SIL and SDA, at the same time.
