Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our services, NDIS funding, and how to get started with Prospect Hill.
Supported Independent Living
SIL is an NDIS-funded support service that helps people with disabilities live as independently as possible. It provides personal support such as help with daily tasks, personal care, cooking, cleaning, medication management and community access. SIL is typically delivered in shared living arrangements or in a participant's own home, with 24/7 or 24/7 support depending on individual needs.
NDIS & Funding
SIL funding needs to be included in your NDIS plan. If you believe you need SIL support, speak with your Local Area Coordinator (LAC) or planner about requesting SIL in your next plan review. Prospect Hill can also help guide you through this process.
No. The NDIS funds your support services (the care you receive), not your housing costs. Participants pay rent and board from their Disability Support Pension — typically up to 75% of disability-related income. Day-to-day expenses like food, utilities and groceries are also the participant's responsibility.
General
Prospect Hill operates across New South Wales (Hunter Valley region) and Queensland (Townsville and Ipswich). We are actively expanding our services to new locations.
Prospect Hill has achieved registered as an NDIS provider — a distinction very few providers can claim. As an established NDIS provider, we combine the scale of a large provider with the personal touch of a family-run organisation. Our CEO and co-founder lived the support experience for 7 years before growing the organisation.
