NDIS High Intensity SIL Adelaide
Care should be likeFamily.
Nurse Aid Australia is a registered NDIS provider based in South Australia. We specialise in Supported Independent Living for participants with high-complexity support needs — the participants that most providers are not equipped to support safely.
How we help
Services Tailored for You.
We provide the support you need, the way you need it — enabling every participant to live with dignity, safety, and genuine independence.

High-Intensity Psychosocial Disability
Supporting participants with complex, acute mental health needs and histories of system involvement, dual diagnosis, and clinical care complexity.

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)
We develop and manage SDA housing the the participants that most providers won't accept — with the clinical infrastructure, design categories, and forensic-ready environments to support them safely.
- Learn more
Social & Community Support
Participant-specific community access delivered by staff trained to the same standard as our SIL workforce — because many of our participants cannot safely access the community with a standard support worker.

Community Nursing
Registered nurse-delivered clinical nursing in participants' own homes — wound care, medication management, catheter care, enteral feeding, and clinical assessment — under NMBA standards, not just NDIS compliance.

What Our Participants & Families Say
James T.
SIL Participant, Adelaide
“The team genuinely cares. They took time to understand what matters to me — not just my disability. I feel respected and supported every day.”
Rachel K.
Support Coordinator
“I've referred participants with complex forensic histories to Nurse Aid. Every time they've delivered — communication is excellent and they genuinely go above and beyond.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our NDIS services and how to get started.
Can families be involved in care and support planning?
Yes. Family involvement is actively encouraged, with the participant's consent. For participants with a legal guardian or administrator, we communicate directly with that person as required by their orders. Families are not chased for updates — we contact proactively.
How is staffing and rostering managed?
Every staff member receives a participant-specific induction before their first shift — covering that participant's de-escalation protocol, medication requirements, communication preferences, and daily routine. The registered nurse is on call 24/7 for clinical escalation.
What areas do you provide SIL in?
Our primary area of service is Adelaide Metro — Mawson Lakes, Salisbury, Para Hills, Elizabeth, Modbury, and surrounding northern suburbs. We also support participants in greater South Australia. Contact us to discuss your specific location.
Can you support participants with forensic or complex backgrounds?
Yes. Forensic SIL is a specialist service line at Nurse Aid. We have documented protocols for participants under SACAT orders, Community Treatment Orders, parole conditions, and FMHS discharge. We do not accept referrals we cannot safely support.
How do I refer a participant to Nurse Aid?
Use the Refer a Participant form on our website, email intake@nurseaidaustralia.com.au, or call 1300 413 663 directly. For complex placements, call first — a peer clinical conversation before formal referral is always welcome.
Who is eligible for your SIL services?
Participants who have NDIS funding for Supported Independent Living and require daily support — including those with complex needs, forensic backgrounds, high-intensity psychosocial disability, or complex physical care requirements. Contact us to discuss your situation.
