Ready to move out of home?

Housing News

Ready to move out of home and build an independent life?

Moving out of home is one of life’s important milestones and a big step towards building a more independent life. While it’s exciting to start making plans for the next phase of your life, it can also be a little daunting knowing where to start and deciding which option works best for you.

Whether you’d like to create a space of your own, move in with friends or join a household and make new friends, Northcott offers a number of housing options designed to meet your personal needs and goals. 

Most Northcott houses require supported independent living (SIL) and specialist disability accommodation (SDA) funding. SIL refers to the support staff in your home, while SDA is the home itself. SDA is designed with a range of accessible features that allow you to live more independently and enables your supports to be delivered safely and effectively. 

Accessible housing that’s right for you

Our range of SIL and SDA disability accommodation across NSW includes units, single and shared villas, and shared houses. The SIL and SDA options allow you to enjoy all the benefits of independent living, while also giving you the support you need. This might include: 

  • Support with household management 
  • Personal care 
  • Mealtime management and other supports you might need assistance with. 

Northcott can also support you with your personal shopping and attending medical appointments.

The Specialist Supported Living option gives you access to specialist nursing staff for people with more complex medical needs  

Our dedicated team of housing specialists

Our dedicated Northcott specialist housing team will work closely with you every step of the way to find your new home. We’ll assess your needs, review your NDIS funding and talk to you to determine the right housing option for you. 

When the time comes for the big move, we’ll work with you and your support network to create a transition plan. Before you know it you’ll be settling into your new home, building a new routine, and ready to invite your family and friends around. 

As a leading disability service provider, we have over 90 years’ experience in supporting people to live their best lives. Moving out of home is a big decision and there’s a lot to consider. Our professional and caring team are on hand to assist you with all the details and create a smooth transition to a rewarding new life.
