How to choose a SIL provider in Adelaide

You'll live with this provider's support every day. Ask:

• Who would I live with, and can I meet them first?
• How is the roster set, and will I see the same workers?
• What support is there overnight: an awake worker or a sleepover?
• What will I pay myself for rent, food and bills?
• How do you handle complaints and changes to my support?

The hardest part is usually finding one with room. Rather than calling down a list, send one request: only providers who can start when you need accept it.

How it works

1. Tell us what you need, where, and how it's funded. It takes about a minute.
2. Providers near you who offer that support see your request.
3. Those who can start when you need accept it, and contact you directly. You choose who to go with.
