How to access a Supported Independent Living (SIL) service in Western Australia

 

With the intent of allowing more choices, freedom, and control over the lives of individuals with disabilities, NDIS is offering the option of Supported Independent Living. Available at one’s own living space or at a shared living arrangement, SIL focuses on supporting and supervising the individual on their daily tasks and in improving their personal and social skills.

Before reaching out to any of the Support Coordination Service providers, it is important to know that NDIS approves the support option based on a guideline that decides the best support option for the participant. This is based on many factors including the participant’s goals, the support required for their daily tasks, if they require person-to-person support, and the support system they already have.

Once the criteria are met, the next step is to find the right SIL partner and Support Coordinator, who will assist right from the documentation through the day-to-day support activities. The NDIS funding will also be based on the quote from the SIL partner. SIL partners like Aastha, which has been providing Supported Independent Living in Perth, WA, offer 24x7

support to the individual in almost all the tasks around their home including personal care, daily life skills, budgeting, social skills, and communication.

Being a registered NDIS Support in Perth, Aastha helps prepare the quote, getting it NDIS approved, and also provides NDIS Accommodation Service in Perth or anywhere in Australia if the participant requires a shared living space. Additionally, Aastha also provides NDIS Core Support in Perth by offering Adult care and Aged care, Drop-in Support services, and Psycho-social support services. Reaching out to a SIL partner like Aastha helps with an independent and safe living space for the disabled, with round-the-clock support, assistance with personal and social skills, and guidance for NDIS related procedures and budgeting.

Why should you hire a Psycho Social Recovery Coach for the Mental health

The impact of psychological disorders on individuals affects multiple aspects including work, social life, daily living, communication, and learning. The modern approaches towards mental illnesses focus on de-institutionalizing, allowing the individuals to live independently and closer to their communities and Psycho-Social Recovery is one such approach. Even though a part of NDIS Mental Health Care Services, individuals have been racked with indecision over approaching these services.

Being an experienced disability support service in Perth, Aastha recommends availing this option and has been providing PsychoSocial Recovery Coach service in Western Australia. This is based on the fact that mental health experts propose an approach where the individual has more choices and feels more in control of their daily living.

Psychosocial rehabilitation is based on the principles of hope, empowerment, improving skills, and offering support in social interactions. A psychosocial recovery coach will provide a hands-on approachtargeting basic living and social skills. The coaching works on evidence-based, dynamic practices, after identifying the individual goals and the strategies to achieve them.

A recovery coach is just a part of the process, where the entire plan is evaluated by a psychiatrist, clinical psychologist, or licensed counselor. Aastha has been providing Psychosocial Support in Perth with experienced coaches who are certified in peer work, mental health, or equivalent training. The participants could also choose coaches who had a similar mental health experience, who could understand their concerns in a better way.
