Living Independently with a Disability

“What is Independent Living?”

Independent living means living on your own. Independent living can be achieved with or without a disability. Independent living may include assisted living, supported independent living, and other types of support services available to those who need them. This blog post will discuss different ways to live independently through NDIS Australia!

Independent Living Facilities

Independent living is also known as disability independent housing. Independent disability housing provides those with disabilities the ability to live independently in their own homes and communities.

People with disabilities can choose from small group homes or large apartment complexes. Independent living services provide support such as housekeeping, transportation, social programs, personal care assistance and more! As an accredited NDIS provider near you, Affective Care can help you find the right option for your needs. The Department of Human Services DHS website will have information about different options for home modifications, including ramps, bathroom/shower accessibility etc…

Living at Home

If you have a disability, you may choose to live in your own home. This includes a house, apartment or townhouse that is modified for accessibility and safety. Independent living can also be found in group housing such as retirement communities where the occupant’s rent covers all utilities, meals, activities, and other support services! The NDIS Website lists Independent Living services under the “Disability Supports” tab. While it is listed under disability supports, it can be used to help someone who wants to live independently at home! Independent living support may include caregiver or personal care assistance, housekeeping and meal preparation.

Supported Independent living

If you have a disability that impacts your ability to work, then supported independent living might be the best option for you. The NDIS website lists Independent Living Support Services under Disability Supports Tab, making finding these services more accessible than ever before! This type of facility provides employment opportunities with other residents in group homes or individual apartments while still providing all necessary daily life support needs such as meals etc…

Independent living is all about providing people with disabilities the opportunity to live independently in their own homes and communities. Independent Living Services are available through NDIS Australia, Independent Living Facilities or Independent Housing!
