It’s MOVING day…. Two awesome clients moving in together. Great day to be moving. Sun is out.. but when your waiting for the truck to come you have to work where you can and sometimes that means the kitchen bench

What a busy October we’ve had! We’ve welcomed some amazing new clients who’ve found their forever SIL homes, which got us thinking… what does make a good SIL provider?

Finding the right Supported Independent Living (SIL) provider is a bit like online dating. You want someone who gets you, listens, and doesn’t ghost you when things get tricky.

Here’s the checklist for your “perfect match”:
💙 Actually listens to you. Not just nodding while planning dinner in their head.
🏡 Keeps the house clean. Because you deserve better than mystery leftovers in the fridge.
📞 Communicates. Texts back faster than your ex.
💪 Supports your goals. Whether it’s cooking your own meals or becoming a karaoke champion.
😄 Has great vibes. You should feel comfortable, respected, and maybe even have a laugh or two along the way!

The right SIL provider isn’t just someone who’s there - it’s someone who’s there for you.

💚 Continuity of Care That Makes a Difference 💚

At Pathways, we know that trust, stability, and connection are the foundation of meaningful support. That’s why our Supported Independent Living accommodation operates on a 48-hour roster, with professional carers who provide consistent, ongoing support.

✨ This model creates stronger, more positive relationships - giving disabled persons the opportunity to build genuine trust with their carers.

✨ With fewer staff changes, there’s less “traffic” through the home, allowing clients to feel a greater sense of ownership over their own space.

✨ Continuity of care also means more support for social connection - both with existing friends and in building new circles - along with deeper investment in community involvement.

At Pathways, we’re committed to creating environments where stability supports independence.

24-Hour Accommodation & Care for Independent Living 🏡

At Pathways, we believe everyone deserves the chance to live proudly, independently, and with the right supports in place. That’s why we provide thoughtfully designed homes with 24-hour care - helping our clients work toward their personal goals while feeling secure and supported.

✨ Our homes are tailored to each person’s needs, including welcoming spaces for friends and family, so staying socially connected is always part of the journey.

✨ We focus on helping young people access age-appropriate housing and matching them with carers and housemates who complement their personality and interests.

✨ And if we don’t currently have the right home in the right location? We work alongside you to identify what’s needed and can quickly mobilise new facilities - because your independence matters.

💚 With Pathways, your life, your choice, your path.
