Supported Independent Living (SIL) is shared housing with daily support to help you build independence while receiving the care you need.

It’s designed for people with disability who want to live in a home-like environment with access to help around the clock.

SIL includes assistance with personal care, meals, household tasks, medication, and skill-building, based on a roster of care that’s built around your NDIS plan and preferences.

Help at Hand Support provides four accommodation options tailored to different support needs, durations, and goals, as listed below:

• Short Term Accommodation (STA) – For respite or temporary stays of up to 14 days
• Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) – Transitional housing while awaiting permanent support, up to 90 days
• Supported Independent Living (SIL) – Shared homes with daily support matched to your care plan
• Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) – Purpose-built housing for individuals with extreme functional impairment or high support needs

Each accommodation is delivered under the NDIS and matched to your personal goals, care level, and preferred living environment.

NDIS accommodation is available to participants who have funding for housing support under categories like Core Supports, Supported Independent Living, or Specialist Disability Accommodation.

Eligibility depends on your NDIS plan goals, level of daily care required, and any functional or medical needs that impact your living arrangements.

We can assist with checking your current plan and advising how to access accommodation supports if they’re not yet included.

We offer accommodations that are safe, respectful, and tailored to your lifestyle, not just your diagnosis.

Our USPs are listed below.

• NDIS-registered and fully compliant – Your supports are delivered with full regulatory transparency
• Tailored living options – Housing is matched to your care level, cultural needs, and preferences
• Daily routines built around you – Support workers assist with meals, hygiene, outings, and personal goals
• Culturally aware staff – Multilingual teams who respect your background and communicate clearly
• Flexible move-in coordination – We work with hospitals, coordinators, and families to support smooth transitions
• 24/7 support available – Overnight care, safety checks, and on-call support whenever needed

Our homes are more than just places to stay; they’re spaces where you can feel secure, develop your skills, and live with confidence.

What types of NDIS accommodation are available?

Who is eligible for NDIS accommodation?

NDIS participants with funding for accommodation supports can access our services. This includes people with Core or Capital Supports related to daily care or housing needs.

How long can I stay in STA or MTA?

STA supports short stays up to 14 days, while MTA covers transitional housing for up to 90 days. Both are flexible and can be extended based on NDIS approval.

What is included in SIL housing?

SIL includes personal care, assistance with meals, cleaning, medication support, and skill development. Support is delivered daily by your NDIS-approved roster of care.

Can I choose who I live with?

Yes, we take into account your preferences and compatibility when matching housemates. We strive to create a respectful and comfortable home environment.

Is SDA only for people with high support needs?

Yes, SDA is designed for participants with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. These homes are purpose-built and meet strict design standards.

If you’re exploring accommodation options, you may also benefit from our in-home support services.

Our Personal Care Assistance helps with daily hygiene, grooming, and mobility delivered right in your supported home or SDA setting.

This ensures your transition into new accommodation includes consistent and respectful daily support.
