New Supported Independent Living (SIL) Practice Standards came into effect in July 2026, setting clearer expectations for high-quality, person-centred support.
At Northcott, we've reviewed our SIL services to ensure we continue providing safe, respectful and empowering support. As part of this work, we're developing more Easy Read resources, improving customer information, updating staff training, and strengthening the ways we support informed choice and decision-making.
These improvements will help customers better understand their rights, options and services while ensuring our supports remain focused on individual needs and goals.
