Supported Independent Living (SIL)

supporting independent living

Our Supported Independent Living (SIL) service provides you with the support you need to live independently in your home, either by yourself or with 1-2 other like-minded people. 

Our experienced housing coordinators work closely with you and your families to design a personalised plan and provide the necessary assistance to help you develop your independence skills. 

Our SIL services can include a range of activities, such as personal care, household tasks, cooking and meal preparation, budget management and more. We also provide support to help participants develop their social skills, build relationships, and engage in recreational and social activities. 

Our staff are also trained in implementing Positive Behaviour Support Plans (PBSP’s), restrictive practices and managing challenging behaviours. We understand that transitioning to SIL can be challenging and pride ourselves on creating a safe and supportive environment in which participants can learn and grow.

Helping Hands feels like family to us. Brandon has been through a lot, and they’re the first provider that really gets him. They put in the time and effort, and it shows. Really grateful for them.

The team at Helping Hands is incredible. They’ve taken such good care of my brother. It’s not easy to find people who actually care, but these guys do. Couldn’t be happier with them.

- Nico.

Excellent group of support workers who genuinely care and want to help improve the lives of those they support. Highly Recommend!
