Your Life, Your Way—Experience SIL With Kukoon

Kukoon’s SIL Promise

Experience care in a setting built for success. Kukoon offers access to purpose-built accommodations, including advanced property, equipped with:

  • 360-degree ceiling hoists for mobility ease.
  • Hi-lo beds and modern equipment for participants with complex physical health needs.
  • Warm, inviting spaces designed for comfort and inclusivity.

Whether transitioning out of hospital care or seeking a long-term home, these facilities keep participants comfortable, safe, and well-supported.

We make your home a place that reflects YOU. From 1:1 or 2:1 high-level, customised support ratios, to matching housemates who complement your personality and lifestyle, everything about our SIL program is fine-tuned to fit your needs.

Don’t wait to gain the independence you deserve. Kukoon guarantees 24-hour response times for enquiries and ensures you’re settled into our SIL services within two weeks.

Some participants require more; with Kukoon, you’ll get more. We are leaders in providing Module 1 complex care and addressing diverse needs, such as spinal cord injuries, neurological conditions, and restrictive practices.

A home is not just four walls—it’s a community. Kukoon positions its homes in vibrant community hubs around Melbourne, creating opportunities for participants to engage in social, recreational, and educational activities.

FAQs about SIL

What is Stage 1?

Kukoon’s ILO team helps with Stage 1. It is all about exploring and designing the individualised living option supports you want and need. You’ll work out where you want to live, with who, what support you’ll need, and who you want to provide that support. At the end of this stage our NDIS Individualised Living Options team will complete a service proposal form.

What is Stage 2?

Stage 2 is where the Kukoon ILO team puts supports in place. The support depends on how and where you want to live, and what supports you need. This could include things NDIS don’t fund, like the support you get from friends and family. You can change your Individualised Living Option supports if your needs change. They’ll be designed to provide the safety, stability, and flexibility you need.

What is ILO not?

ILO is not:

  • Funding for where you live or home modifications.
  • Support for activities outside your home, such as work or study, playing sport or going out.
  • An arrangement where you don’t get to choose who you live with.
  • A program of set supports or services that don’t reflect your preferences or needs.
