Questions

SIL in Essendon North: common questions.

Are there current SIL vacancies in Essendon North?

Yes. Vitality Community Care currently lists 1 supported home in Essendon North with vacancies, built to the High Physical Support design category. Every placement is subject to availability and suitability, so we recommend submitting a referral early to start the conversation.

What is Supported Independent Living (SIL)?

SIL is NDIS funding for support workers who help a participant live as independently as possible in their own home, from a few hours a day up to 24/7 support. It covers the human support delivered in the home; the home itself may separately attract SDA funding if the participant is eligible.

What support does Vitality provide in Essendon North?

Our team supports participants in Essendon North and across Melbourne's inner north with daily living, personal care, community access and, where funded, nursing and high-intensity supports. Support plans are shaped around each participant's goals, routines and preferences.

How do I refer someone for a home in Essendon North?

Support coordinators, hospital discharge planners, family members and participants themselves can all refer. Submit the referral form on our website or call 1300 395 852; we respond quickly with honest advice about fit, including when a different provider or home would suit better.

Can we visit a Essendon North home before deciding?

Yes. We encourage participants, families and coordinators to view the home before any decision is made, and to meet the team who would be providing support. No one should commit to a home they have not seen.
