Supported Independent Living

At Silverstar Care we ensure that people with disabilities have more freedom to make choices in life and that they receive support for the choices they make. Our idea is to promote greater choice for people with disabilities in terms of where they live, the people they live with, and the level of assistance needed to help them go about their daily lives. 

• Work – By helping to build friendships and make people with disabilities feel more included in society, work, either volunteer or paid, is one of the most powerful ways to promote independent living in adults with a disability.
• Physical Independence – We promote physical independence among a people with disabilities by giving them the choice to take on daily responsibilities such as cooking, washing, making the bed, or ironing, depending on their level of disability.
• Provide Support, Not Control
• Build Confidence – We build confidence slowly by allowing adults with disabilities to first make small decisions about daily life: for example, let them decide what to cook for dinner. Over time, their confidence will build and their independence will broaden.
