Supported Independent Living (SIL) provides NDIS participants with the assistance needed to live safely and confidently in a shared or individual living environment. At NewAura Disability Services in Blackett, our SIL support is designed to help participants manage daily life at home while building independence, stability, and long-term living skills.
SIL is not just about support—it’s about creating a structured, secure home environment where participants can develop routines, make decisions, and live with dignity.
How SIL Works at NewAura
NewAura’s SIL support is delivered within the participant’s home and focuses on day-to-day assistance that supports safe and sustainable living. Support is tailored to the level of assistance required and aligns with each participant’s NDIS plan.
SIL support may include:
- Assistance with daily routines and household tasks
- Support with personal care where required
- Help managing meals, schedules, and shared responsibilities
- Overnight or on-site supervision, if funded
- Support to maintain a safe and respectful living environment
Support levels are structured but flexible, ensuring participants receive the right assistance without limiting independence.
Supporting Stability and Independence at Home
Living independently requires consistency, structure, and support. Our SIL services help participants develop the skills and confidence needed to manage everyday living responsibilities while feeling secure in their home.
Participants are supported to:
- Establish and follow daily routines
- Build independence in personal and household tasks
- Participate in decision-making about their living environment
- Develop skills for long-term independent or supported living
Support is delivered in a way that encourages gradual skill development and autonomy.
Shared Living and Individualised Support
For participants living in shared accommodation, NewAura promotes respectful co-living arrangements. Support workers assist with:
- Encouraging positive communication between housemates
- Supporting shared responsibilities and boundaries
- Maintaining a calm, stable household environment
Each participant’s support is delivered individually, even within shared settings, ensuring personal goals and preferences are respected.

SIL support places a strong emphasis on safety and wellbeing. Our trained staff follow clear procedures to support participants with:
- Risk awareness and safe living practices
