Supported Independent Living (SIL) is a type of NDIS funding and support to help you with daily tasks to live as independently as possible whilst building your skills. We provide SIL supports in your own apartment within our Vertical Village model.
Some of the supports covered by SIL:
We will help you find a home that caters to your needs, making sure you can enjoy your stay and community.
Depending on your particular needs support is available for meeting the necessities of life in your own home.
Be supported in personal care activities like showering, dressing and hair grooming.
Assistance with completion of housework, for example, cleaning, organising and more!
Ongoing skills development to help you achieve your independence goals!
Support to get you out of the house, such as a trip to the shops, cafes or the park.
Supported Independent Living puts you at the centre of our care. This person-centred approach fosters a sense of self-worth and happiness, ultimately leading to an improved overall quality of life.
SIL encourages active participation in the community, enabling you to build social connections, make friends, and engage in meaningful activities.
Through skill development programs, SIL equips you with valuable life skills. These skills can range from cooking and cleaning to financial management and transportation.
One of the primary goals of SIL is to empower you to live as independently as possible. This independence enhances self-esteem and self-reliance.
1. Extended Flexibility
Medium-term accommodation offers the freedom for you to stay for a more extended period without being locked into a year-long lease. This flexibility is especially valuable for individuals uncertain about their future plans or those in need of temporary housing during transitions.
2. Cost-Efficiency
Compared to the daily rates of short-term stays, medium-term accommodation often provides you more affordable nightly rates. It strikes a balance between the cost-effectiveness of long-term leases and the convenience of short-term rentals.
3. Furnished Living Spaces
Medium-term accommodations are typically fully furnished, offering you all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. This includes kitchen facilities, making it convenient for guests to cook their meals and feel at home.
4. Reduced Commitment
Leasing an apartment for a year or more can be a significant commitment. Medium-term accommodations provide the benefits of a stable living arrangement for you without the long-term commitment, making it ideal for professionals on temporary assignments or individuals exploring a new city.
5. Accessible Locations
Many medium-term accommodation options are strategically located in urban centres, near business districts, and close to public transportation. This makes convenient choices for you to explore a new city.
Individualised Living Options allows you to choose the home you live in and set up supports in a way that works for your needs, although it does not cover the home itself. ILO is a great option if you’re not currently eligible for Supported Independent Living (SIL).
United for Care allows you to tailor a package of supports that can help you live the way you want to in the home you have selected.

I'm here, I'm safe and I've got a place to call home. I've got an incredible care team around me that understand my needs and it's amazing! Very grateful for United for Care!
This team is the Gold Standard. The staff have a good handle on comorbidity of cognitive impairment, mental health, substance use and challenging behaviours. It’s what makes them so aspirational. I worked with one of their clients in crisis homelessness intermittent with incarceration & hospitalisation. He would disappear and reappear. This man is now present, engaged, has a home, no criminal matters. His quality of life has improved.
United for Care became a beacon of hope for our family when my sister suffered a stroke that left her non-verbal and with a permanent physical disability. Their dedicated and compassionate team provided quality care and emotional support, bringing hope and normalcy back into our lives. They celebrated her progress and, most importantly, helped her find her voice again. We are forever grateful for their support.
