Supported Independent Living
A home where the routine works and the participant isn’t on their own.
A home is a home. Predictable. Warm. The participant’s own.
What life in a Kia Maia SIL home looks like.
- Shared living — for participants who want company, not housemates assigned at random
- Daily routines — meals, sleep, getting up, getting out — kept steady
- Skill-building — cooking, cleaning, looking after yourself, practised at home
- Personal care — private, respectful, on the participant’s terms
- Safety and wellbeing — risks identified ahead of time, not after
- Communication — families and coordinators kept up to date
For participants moving toward a home with support.
SIL works when the planning is done properly — the right match, the right rhythm, the right staff. We take time on that before anyone moves in.
For families
Regular updates. Same staff where possible. No surprises.
For coordinators
Clear matching process, written plans, and reporting tied to plan goals.
A few things to know about us.
Considered matching
We don’t put people together by accident. Compatibility is part of the plan.
Stable rosters
Same staff where possible. People shouldn’t have to re-explain themselves every shift.
Family in the loop
You hear from us. Not just at review time.
Notes that travel
Proper documentation so anyone covering a shift knows what matters.
