Supported Accommodation

Your direct support staff provider will liaise with the NDIA directly to arrange the SIL funding. A roster of care will be developed with your input (as well as input from any other specialists and support staff). This will then be translated into a monetary value and sent through to the NDIA as a quote.

SIL funding requests will require additional supporting documentation. This may include (but is not limited to):

• Speech therapist reports
• Occupational therapy reports
• Physiotherapy reports
• Incident reports
• Behaviour reports
• Behaviour support plans
• Medical notes
• Specialist reports.

Cost of support does NOT include rent, board or lodging, day-to-day usual living expenses such as food and activities, personal care supports when the person is hospitalised, or items covered in other sections of the NDIS price guide (e.g. assistive technology or transport costs).

Get in touch with your Support Coordinator or the NDIA directly and request a change of circumstances/situation plan review meeting. The NDIA will arrange a time to come out and meet with you. When you meet with the planner, tell them that finding another place to live is your first goal. Upon approval of your plan, ask your Support Coordinator to check with the NDIA if you are eligible for the SIL (and SDA, if needed).
