Behaviour Support

Behaviour Support aims to improve the quality of life for individuals who experience behaviours of concern. This is achieved by developing proactive, evidence-based strategies that address behaviours while prioritising the person’s individual needs, dignity, and overall wellbeing.

Overall, Behaviour Support aims to enhance independence, social participation, and the long-term quality of life for NDIS participants by building skills, reducing behaviours of concern, and strengthening support networks.

Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Supported Independent Living (SIL) provides home and living support to assist participants with daily living tasks, such as personal care, meal preparation, and household management, enabling them to live as independently as possible. SIL is designed for participants with higher support needs who require 24/7 assistance in either shared or individual homes. Supports can be provided in SIL homes, Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), or other NDIS-approved disability housing.
