Individualised Living Options (ILO) with CareX Australia: Live Life Your Way

What Are Individualised Living Options (ILO)?

At CareX Australia, we provide Individualised Living Options (ILO) to help people with disabilities live

independently while receiving the right support. ILOs allow participants to design their living arrangements, routines, and support levels, giving them greater autonomy, control, and confidence in daily life.

How ILO Differs from Supported Independent Living (SIL)

Unlike traditional Supported Independent Living (SIL), ILO focuses on:

• Flexibility: Tailoring support to suit individual goals and lifestyle

• Choice: You decide where and how you live, who you live with, and the level of support you receive

• Person-Centred Care: Your needs, preferences, and aspirations guide all decisions

  ILOs are designed to promote independence and self-determination, offering a personalised alternative to standard group homes.

3. Flexible Living Arrangements
