Supported Independent Living (SIL)
At Enhance Nursing Care and Support Services PTY LTD, we provide Supported Independent Living (SIL) services designed to support participants who require ongoing assistance to live as independently as possible in a shared or individual home environment.
SIL is funded under the NDIS for participants who need regular support with daily living tasks, including potential 24/7 assistance depending on individual needs and funding.
Our focus is to create a safe, supportive, and empowering home environment where participants can build skills, increase independence, and feel confident in their daily lives.
