Your NDIS community participation funding comes in TWO types β€” and they work very differently! πŸ’‘ Here's the breakdown:

πŸ”΅ Core Supports (Category 4) β€” "Help you participate NOW"
Pays for a support worker to accompany you to activities RIGHT NOW
βœ… Flexible β€” you can use any Core funding for this
βœ… Covers: social groups, outings, concerts, sporting clubs, movies, community events

🟒 Capacity Building (Category 9) β€” "Build skills for FUTURE independence"
Pays for structured training so you can participate MORE INDEPENDENTLY over time
βœ… Locked β€” can only be spent on this specific category
βœ… Covers: learning public transport, shopping alone, paying bills, navigating busy places

In simple terms:
πŸ”΅ Core = someone helps you participate TODAY
🟒 Capacity Building = you learn to participate on your OWN

πŸ’‘ Many participants have BOTH in their plan β€” and together, they create a pathway from supported participation to greater independence! πŸ’ͺ

At OneJesus Care, we offer both supported community access and skill-building programs tailored to your goals. 100% non-profit, 100% focused on YOU. πŸ’™

⚠️ Important update for all NDIS participants in group homes!

From 1 July 2026, the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission is introducing MANDATORY REGISTRATION for all SIL providers.

Here's what this means for you:

πŸ”Ή The NDIS will ONLY fund SIL support through Registered providers after this date
πŸ”Ή If your current provider is unregistered, you may need to switch providers
πŸ”Ή Registered providers must meet strict quality and safeguard standards

❓ What should you do NOW?

βœ… Check if your current SIL provider is registered
βœ… If they're unregistered, start exploring registered providers early
βœ… Don't wait until the deadline β€” transitioning takes time
βœ… Talk to your NDIS planner about your options

πŸ’‘ This change is designed to PROTECT you β€” ensuring every SIL provider meets the highest standards of care and safety.

At OneJesus Care, we are a FULLY REGISTERED NDIS provider β€” so your SIL funding is secure. As a 100% non-profit organisation, we meet the highest quality standards because that's what our participants deserve. πŸ’™

Choosing a group home is one of the BIGGEST decisions you'll ever make. 🏠 Don't rush it, ask the right questions first!

Here are 10 questions to ask EVERY SIL provider:

1️⃣ What is the staffing ratio during the day AND overnight?
2️⃣ How do you match housemates to ensure compatibility?
3️⃣ What activities and programs do you offer?
4️⃣ How do you handle emergencies and incidents?
5️⃣ What costs are covered by NDIS vs. out of pocket?
6️⃣ How do you communicate with families?
7️⃣ Can I visit the home and meet residents before deciding?
8️⃣ What happens if it's not the right fit?
9️⃣ How do you support residents to build independence?
πŸ”Ÿ Are staff trained in my specific disability area?

🚩 Red flags to watch for:

❌ Provider avoids answering questions
❌ No opportunity to visit before moving in
❌ High staff turnover
❌ Poor communication with families
❌ Lack of person-centred planning

πŸ’‘ Tip: If possible, speak with current residents or their families. Word of mouth gives you honest insight!

At OneJesus Care, we welcome visits and encourage families to see our centre first-hand. As a 100% non-profit, our focus is entirely on participant wellbeing β€” not profit margins. 🌟

Ever wondered what daily life in an NDIS group home actually looks like? 🏠 It's designed to feel like HOME, because it IS your home!

A typical day might include:

πŸŒ… Morning
Support with personal care, breakfast, and medication

β˜€οΈ Daytime
Community activities, day programs, skill-building, social outings, or simply relaxing at home

🍳 Afternoon
Shared household tasks, cooking dinner together, pursuing hobbies

πŸŒ™ Evening
Social time with housemates, entertainment, winding down

🌜 Overnight
Active or sleepover support available for those who need it

But the BEST part? The social connection! 🀝

Living with peers creates a sense of belonging that can be hard to find elsewhere. Residents form genuine friendships, support each other, and enjoy shared experiences, from movie nights to cooking together to community outings.

πŸ’ͺ A good group home doesn't take away your independence β€” it BUILDS it. You decide what to eat, when to go out, what activities to join, and how you spend your time.

At OneJesus Care, our 24/7 SIL support in Green Valley creates a warm, welcoming home where every participant is valued, supported, and empowered to live their best life. πŸ’™

How much does it cost to live in an NDIS group home? πŸ’™ Let's break down SIL funding for 2025–26!

SIL (Supported Independent Living) is funded through your NDIS plan. The amount depends on your support level:

πŸ’° Low Support: $80,000 – $120,000/year
Minimal daily assistance β€” some help with personal care or meals

πŸ’° Medium Support: $120,000 – $200,000/year
Regular daily support β€” help with most tasks, some overnight assistance

πŸ’° High Support: $200,000 – $320,000/year
Intensive 24/7 support β€” significant personal care and supervision

πŸ’° Very High/Complex: $320,000+/year
Complex disability with medical needs β€” 1:1 or 2:1 support ratios

What affects your funding amount?
πŸ”Ή Severity of functional impairment
πŸ”Ή Behavioural support complexity
πŸ”Ή Medical care requirements
πŸ”Ή Shared vs. individual support ratios

βœ… SIL covers: Support workers, personal care, meals support, medication management, community access
❌ SIL does NOT cover: Rent, food, utilities, personal items

⚠️ These ranges are indicative. Your actual funding depends on your assessed needs and individual circumstances.

At OneJesus Care, we're a 100% non-profit provider β€” meaning every dollar of your SIL funding goes directly to quality care. 🌟

Wondering if you qualify for NDIS group home funding? πŸ’™ Here's how to know if SIL (Supported Independent Living) might be right for you!

You may be eligible if:

βœ… You are an active NDIS participant with a current plan
βœ… Your plan includes a home and living goal
βœ… You have significant support needs affecting daily tasks
βœ… Your needs can't be fully met by family or informal supports alone
βœ… You need ongoing, regular paid support to live safely
βœ… SIL will help increase your independence or community participation

πŸ“‹ Evidence you'll typically need:

1️⃣ A functional capacity assessment from an Occupational Therapist (OT)
2️⃣ Medical reports from your GP and specialists
3️⃣ Therapy assessments (physio, psychology, etc.)
4️⃣ Details of your current support arrangements
5️⃣ Your housing preferences

πŸ’‘ Tip: The OT assessment is the most important step β€” it usually requires 15–20 hours of OT funding from your Improved Daily Living budget. Start early!

At OneJesus Care, we help participants and families across Sydney navigate the SIL application process from start to finish. As a 100% non-profit provider, our focus is entirely on YOU. πŸ’™

Confused by NDIS housing acronyms? πŸ€” Let's clear it up once and for all!

The NDIS has THREE main home and living supports β€” and they each do something different:

🏠 SIL (Supported Independent Living)
Pays for: The SUPPORT STAFF and daily care you receive
Best for: Participants who need daily or 24/7 help with personal care, meals, and daily tasks

πŸ—οΈ SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation)
Pays for: The HOUSE ITSELF β€” purpose-built, accessible housing
Best for: Participants with very high physical support needs

🎯 ILO (Individualised Living Options)
Pays for: DESIGNING your own personalised living arrangement
Best for: Participants who want flexible, non-traditional living setups

In simple terms:
βœ… SIL = the people who help you
βœ… SDA = the place you live
βœ… ILO = your custom arrangement

Many group home residents have BOTH SIL and SDA funding β€” SIL for the support, SDA for the home. But you can also receive SIL in a regular rental property! πŸ’ͺ

At OneJesus Care, we offer ALL THREE β€” SIL, SDA, and ILO β€” with SDA High Physical Need Support certified rooms and LHA Platinum level facilities. 🌟

Searching for "group homes near me"? 🏠 Here's what you need to know about NDIS group homes in Sydney!

Under the NDIS, what most people call a "group home" is officially known as Supported Independent Living (SIL). It's a shared living arrangement where NDIS participants live together in a real home, with trained support workers available 24/7.

Here's what SIL support covers:

βœ… Personal care (showering, dressing, grooming)
βœ… Meal preparation and eating
βœ… Medication management
βœ… Household tasks (cleaning, laundry)
βœ… Overnight supervision and support
βœ… Community access and social activities
βœ… Building independence and life skills

πŸ’‘ Important: SIL pays for the SUPPORT you receive, not the house itself. If you need specially designed, accessible housing, that's funded separately through SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation).

At OneJesus Care, we offer SIL, SDA, and ILO supports, all under one roof. As a 100% non-profit organisation, every dollar goes directly back into participant care.

Being placed in aged care at a young age can feel isolating, overwhelming, and unfair.

But here’s something important:

πŸ‘‰ You have the right to safe, appropriate disability support.
πŸ‘‰ You have the right to ask for plan changes.
πŸ‘‰ You have the right to explore better living options
πŸ‘‰ You have the right to speak up if care isn’t meeting your needs.

NDIS exists to help you live with dignity β€” not just exist.

Whether you’re already an NDIS participant or just starting the journey, support is available to help you:

✨ Rebuild independence
✨ Reconnect with community
✨ Find suitable housing
✨ Access personalised care

At ONEJESUS CARE, we walk beside you through every step β€” from understanding your plan to finding real solutions.

If this speaks to you or your family:

πŸ“ž Call 1800 04 CARE πŸ“© Or send us a message today. Your life is bigger than aged care.

Many people don’t realise this, but if you’re under 65 and living in residential aged care, you may be eligible for NDIS support that can help you move into a more suitable home.

Aged care is designed for older Australians. It often doesn’t provide the independence, community connection, or personalised disability support younger people need.

Here’s what the NDIS may help with:
βœ” Exploring alternative housing options
βœ” Support coordination to guide your transition
βœ” Daily living supports
βœ” Therapy to build skills and confidence
βœ” Assistive technology (like customised wheelchairs)
βœ” Community participation

You don’t have to stay stuck just because it feels complicated.

If you or someone you love is in this situation, start by asking:

πŸ‘‰ Am I an NDIS participant?
πŸ‘‰ Do I have housing goals in my plan?

These two questions can change everything.

At ONEJESUS CARE, we help younger people understand their rights, navigate the NDIS, and move toward safer, more independent living.

Good support coordination isn’t just paperwork, it’s active partnership. A support coordinator should help you:

βœ” Choose the right providers for your goals
βœ” Set up and maintain services that make sense for your day-to-day life
βœ” Troubleshoot problems like scheduling, conflicting supports, or provider changes

When support feels fragmented, it’s usually because there’s no one actively guiding the whole picture. Effective coordination:

β€’ Connects you with services that fit
β€’ Builds your confidence to use your plan
β€’ Helps you plan for changes & challenges

You deserve support that’s consistent, respectful, and centered around you, not just your plan number. πŸ’œ

Feeling confused about who pays for what?

You’re not alone; this is one of the biggest challenges families face.

Here’s a simple breakdown:

πŸ₯ Aged Care usually provides:

β€’ Meals & cleaning
β€’ Nursing care
β€’ Personal care (showering, dressing)
β€’ Shared equipment

🧩 NDIS focuses on disability-specific needs like:

β€’ Support coordination
β€’ Therapy services
β€’ Assistive technology
β€’ Community access
β€’ Capacity building
β€’ Transition to independent housing

NDIS doesn’t replace aged care; it adds disability supports on top.

Understanding this difference can help you advocate for the right services and avoid missing out on funding you’re entitled to.

If your loved one feels stuck or unsupported, their NDIS plan might need updating. We help families review plans, identify gaps, and connect the right supports.
