At Quality Life Care, we understand the importance of independence and choice for our participants. That’s why our Supported Independent Living (SIL) services focus on empowering individuals to take control of their lives. By providing tailored support for daily tasks, we ensure our participants can lead fulfilling, independent lives while receiving the assistance they need.
What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?
Supported Independent Living (SIL) differs from Specialist Disability Accommodation. SIL focuses on providing support with daily life activities while giving participants more choices and control. Our SIL services include assistance with meal preparation, personal care tasks like bathing and dressing, and support during medical appointments. By offering comprehensive support, we enable our participants to manage their daily routines with confidence.
Key Supported Independent Living Tasks
Meal Preparation and Cleanup
Preparing meals and cleaning up afterward can be challenging for some individuals. Our SIL support includes assistance in these tasks, ensuring that participants enjoy nutritious meals and maintain a clean living environment.
Personal Care
Maintaining personal hygiene and grooming is crucial for well-being. Our support workers assist with tasks such as bathing, dressing, and other personal care activities, promoting independence and self-esteem.
Medical Appointments
Attending medical appointments is essential for health management. Our SIL services include support during these appointments, ensuring that participants receive the necessary medical care and follow-up.
Household Management
Daily household tasks can be overwhelming. Our support extends to helping with various household management tasks, ensuring a comfortable and organized living space.
The Role of Support Staff in SIL Services
In Supported Independent Living, the support staff plays a vital role. They either stay with the participant or in a nearby building, providing quick access when needed. This arrangement allows participants to feel supported without feeling fully dependent on another individual. The presence of support staff ensures that help is available whenever required, promoting a sense of security and independence.
What SIL Services Do Not Include
While SIL services cover a wide range of daily tasks, they do not include assistance with community participation, transport, internet connection, food, or consumables. The focus of SIL is on providing essential support within the participant’s living environment, ensuring that they can manage their daily activities effectively.
