Supported independent living is one type of aid that can help you live in your own home. It includes assistance or supervision with daily tasks such as personal care or meal preparation. It allows you to live as independently as possible while also working to develop your skills. Supported independent living is for people who require a high level of assistance at home all of the time. Supported independent living is particularly fit to people with disabilities who require more assistance. This means you require significant assistance throughout the day, seven days a week. This includes overnight assistance.
