What to compare before choosing

Use these service-specific checks when you contact providers in Holt. Confirm each answer directly; a directory listing does not prove current capacity.

Current vacancy

A provider can offer SIL generally without having a suitable room available now.

Ask: Which specific homes have a current vacancy and what is the proposed move-in date?

Roster and ratios

The roster of care determines the actual shared and individual support delivered.

Ask: Can I review the proposed roster, overnight model and staffing ratios before deciding?

Household compatibility

Location, routines, accessibility and co-resident preferences affect whether a home works.

Ask: How will you assess compatibility and arrange visits with the existing household?

Provider separation

Housing and support arrangements should preserve participant choice and exit options.

Ask: Can I change my SIL support provider without losing the tenancy?

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly are SIL enquiries responded to?

Across 37 SIL accepted enquiries on Carevo, the median enquiry acceptance time is 5 minutes. 70% of SIL enquiries nationally have enquiry details accepted within 1 hour, and 95% within 24 hours. This is the national figure for one service, so it differs from any Holt figure above, which covers every service in the suburb.

How many SIL providers are there in Holt?

There are currently 16 SIL providers operating in Holt listed on Carevo. All are NDIS registered, as SIL providers are required to be registered to deliver this support.

How is SIL funding determined?

The NDIS determines your SIL funding through a support needs assessment during planning. Your chosen provider then submits a quote outlining the staffing model and costs. The NDIA approves the quote and includes the funding in your plan. Funding levels depend on the intensity and hours of support required.

Do I have to live with other people in a SIL arrangement?

Not necessarily. SIL can be delivered in shared living arrangements with housemates, or in individual tenancies where you live alone with support workers visiting. Shared arrangements generally result in lower per-person costs, which can mean more hours of support within your funding. Discuss your preferences with your provider and support coordinator.

Can I choose my housemates in a SIL home?

You have the right to be consulted on who you live with. Good providers will involve you in this decision and consider compatibility when placing people in shared homes. If a match is not working, raise it with the provider or your support coordinator.

What is the difference between SIL and SDA?

SIL (Supported Independent Living) funds the support workers who assist you in your home. SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) funds the physical home itself, which is purpose-built or modified for people with significant housing needs. You can receive SIL without SDA. SDA requires a separate eligibility assessment and is only available to participants with very high support needs or extreme functional impairment. Many people in SIL live in standard rental properties, not SDA housing.

How much does SIL cost per year in Holt?

Annual SIL funding in Holt typically ranges from around $120,000 for lower-needs participants in shared arrangements to over $300,000 for those requiring complex or one-to-one support. The NDIS funds the support component only, meaning the cost of support workers and rostered care. Rent, utilities, food, and personal expenses are paid separately from your own income or Disability Support Pension. The NDIS determines your individual SIL funding amount through a support needs assessment and an approved quote from your chosen provider.

How long does it take to access SIL in Holt?

The full process, from NDIS planning through to moving into a SIL property, can take several months. This includes the support needs assessment, provider selection, quoting, NDIA approval, and finding suitable housing. Starting the process early with a support coordinator helps reduce delays.

Can I self-manage my SIL funding?

No. SIL is an NDIS-managed support, which means the NDIA manages the funding directly. You cannot self-manage or plan-manage SIL. You must use an NDIS registered SIL provider.

What happens if I want to change my SIL provider?

You can change SIL providers, but the process takes time because the new provider needs to prepare and submit a new quote to the NDIS. A support coordinator can manage this process for you. Give as much notice as possible, and check the exit terms in your existing service agreement before making a change.

How Much Does Supported Independent Living Cost in Holt?

SIL funding in Holt is included in your NDIS plan under Core Supports, specifically the "Assistance with Daily Life" support category. The NDIS funds the support component of SIL, not the rent or board. Participants typically contribute to rent from their Disability Support Pension or other personal income, separate from NDIS funding.

Annual SIL funding levels typically range from Funded via NDIS hourly SIL line items, set by your individual roster of care depending on the intensity of support required. Lower-needs participants in shared arrangements receive less funding than those requiring one-to-one or complex behaviour support. The NDIS determines your SIL funding amount during planning based on a formal support needs assessment.

SIL providers submit a quote to the NDIS outlining the staffing model, hours of support, and associated costs. The NDIA assesses the quote against the Supported Independent Living Pricing Guidance and approves an amount. Providers cannot charge participants above what the NDIS funds for the support component.

Rent, utilities, food, and personal expenses are not covered by SIL funding. Participants typically contribute these from their own income, Disability Support Pension, and Rent Assistance. Some providers offer all-inclusive arrangements, so it is important to clarify exactly what is and is not covered when comparing providers.

Time	Indicative rate
Lower needs (shared, minimal overnight support)	$120,000 - $160,000/yr
Moderate needs (shared, some overnight)	$160,000 - $220,000/yr
Higher needs (shared, active overnight)	$220,000 - $270,000/yr
Complex needs (1:1 or specialist support)	$270,000 - $300,000+/yr

Funding figures are indicative. Actual SIL funding is determined by the NDIS through an individual assessment and approved quote process. Figures represent the support funding component only and do not include rent, utilities, or living costs.

How SIL Funding Works in Holt

SIL is funded entirely through the NDIS. There is no co-contribution toward the support component for eligible participants. To access SIL funding, it must be included in your NDIS plan, which requires a formal assessment of your support needs and a recommendation that SIL is the most appropriate funded support.

NDIS Core Supports: SIL sits within the Core Supports budget under "Assistance with Daily Life." Because SIL is a high-cost, complex support, the NDIS manages SIL funding directly. Participants cannot self-manage or plan-manage SIL funding. The NDIA approves the provider and funding amount through the quoting process.

The SIL quoting process: Once you choose a provider, they prepare a SIL roster of care document and submit a quote to the NDIS. This outlines the staffing model, support hours, and weekly cost. The NDIA reviews the quote and approves or requests adjustments. This process can take several weeks, so starting early is important.

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA): SDA is a separate NDIS funding category for purpose-built accessible housing. If you have significant physical needs or an extreme functional impairment, you may be eligible for SDA funding in addition to SIL. SDA and SIL funding are assessed separately. Not all participants in SIL live in SDA housing; many live in standard community rental properties.

Rent and living costs: Rent is paid separately, usually from your Disability Support Pension and Rent Assistance. Commonwealth Rent Assistance may be available if you pay private rent. Clarify with your prospective provider how rent and living costs are structured before agreeing to a placement.

What to Expect from a SIL Provider in Holt

SIL providers support you to live as independently as possible in a home environment. Support is available around the clock and covers personal care, domestic tasks, medication management, community access, and developing daily living skills. The level of support varies based on your individual needs and what is approved in your NDIS plan.

The process begins with an assessment of your support needs, usually involving your NDIS planner or Local Area Coordinator (LAC). They will assess the type and intensity of support required and determine whether SIL is appropriate. If approved, your plan will include a SIL funding allocation and you can begin looking at providers and housing options.

Most SIL providers will invite you to visit their homes or meet current residents before committing. A good provider will talk with you about your goals, your preferences for housemates, and how they run the house. You should have real input into where you live and who you live with.

Once you move in, there is usually a settling-in period where the support team learns your routines and adjusts the roster to suit your needs. Regular house meetings and reviews give you the opportunity to raise issues or request changes to your support.

Under the NDIS, you have the right to change SIL providers if the arrangement is not working. Transitions between providers take time because of the quoting process, but a good support coordinator can manage this on your behalf.

How we rank providers

Rankings in Holt use directory relevance and observable activity on Carevo: service match, distance, register-sourced status fields, whether an enquiry can reach the provider, and recent response and connection activity. Rankings are recalculated daily. They do not assess care quality or recommend a provider.

How this list is built. Providers shown here are registered with the NDIS for Assistance with daily life tasks in a group or shared living arrangement, or offer sil, support work, and personal care. Generalist providers who only mention this service in passing are excluded, so the list reflects genuine, demonstrated capability.
Activity on Carevo. We measure recent actions such as connecting on an enquiry, opening its contact details, responding, and an inquirer reporting whether a connection helped. These are platform activity signals, not an assessment of the support delivered.
Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
Register-sourced status. NDIS registration fields come from the NDIS Commission provider register. Aged care approval fields come from the My Aged Care register. These statuses are ranking inputs, not Carevo endorsements, and you should confirm the current register entry before choosing a provider.
Carevo enquiries. Providers who have paused requests from us are moved down among providers with the same relevance. They stay visible and are marked as not receiving Carevo enquiries.
Recent activity. Providers active on Carevo recently (a connection, a login, or a profile update) get a small boost, the same signal shown as "Active this week" on their card. It is deliberately small: stronger relevance and condition evidence outweigh a recent login.
Local presence. Providers confirmed in Holt rank above those covering only the broader region.

What the enquiries status means

It answers one question: would a request sent through Carevo today actually reach them? It is not a rating, it is not about the provider's books, and it is not a statement about their capacity, their waiting list, or the quality of their care.

Receiving: At least one contact on their account is set up to receive new requests from us, and someone has signed in recently enough for us to say a person is there.
Not receiving: Every contact on the account has unsubscribed or paused, so we have no way to pass an enquiry on.
No status shown: We cannot tell either way, so we say nothing rather than label the provider. The account is set to receive enquiries, but nobody has signed in recently, or there are no contact details on file. It is not a negative mark, and most listings sit here.

A provider who is not receiving our enquiries may well be taking new clients directly. Providers set this themselves and can turn it back on at any time from their Carevo account or from any email we send them. Providers not receiving our enquiries are moved down the list and never hidden. It is refreshed daily, so a provider who resumes, or signs in, reappears within a day.

What the Carevo activity rating means

The Strong activity rating describes how a provider behaves on Carevo, not the care they deliver.

Where it starts: Every provider starts at a baseline of 50.
What moves it: Enquiries from the last 90 days. The strongest positive is a care seeker naming that provider as the one who helped them. The clearest negative is connecting on an enquiry and never opening the contact details.
How it is kept honest: Recalculated daily from scratch, shown only above the baseline and only with at least two scored signals, and removed automatically when either stops being true. It cannot be purchased.

It is not an endorsement, a recommendation, or an assessment of care quality, and we do not screen providers for complaints. Complaints are handled by the NDIS Commission and the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission. See the full activity rating methodology.
