Frequently Asked Questions About SIL in Riverview
What is the difference between SIL and SDA?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) is the funding for support services you need to live independently, such as help with personal care or meal preparation. Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) is the funding for the purpose-built, accessible housing itself. You can receive SIL support in various settings, including an SDA property.
Who is eligible for SIL funding?
SIL is typically available to NDIS participants who have been assessed as needing significant support with daily tasks to live independently. Your eligibility is determined by the NDIS based on your individual support needs.
Can I visit the Riverview SIL property before deciding?
Yes, absolutely. We strongly encourage you and your support network to visit our homes. We happily arrange in-person property inspections to help you determine if it feels like the right fit for you.
What is the staff-to-participant ratio at the Riverview home?
Our Riverview home is designed for three residents, and we maintain appropriate support ratios to ensure you receive attentive care while also fostering independence. The exact ratio is tailored to the collective needs of the residents.
Do you offer respite or short-term stays?
Yes, we offer Short Term Accommodation (STA), which includes respite care. This is a great way to trial a supported living arrangement or provide a break for your usual carers
