Supported Independent Living for people with complex needs
Direct Care Resources provides Supported Independent Living (SIL) across South East Queensland and Darling Downs for people with complex support needs.
For nearly 30 years, DCR has supported people through experienced teams, strong relationships and care that is personal, stable and well managed.
Choosing a Supported Independent Living provider is about more than finding a vacancy
Families, guardians and support coordinators need confidence that support will be delivered by people who understand the responsibility involved and can provide support that is safe, stable and well managed.
DCR supports people with complex and high-intensity support needs across South East Queensland and Darling Downs. This may include people who rely on experienced support teams, stable routines, clear communication and support that is carefully planned around their individual needs.
Every referral is considered on its own circumstances. Our team takes the time to understand the person’s support needs, living arrangements and goals before determining whether DCR may be the right fit.
Why families and support coordinators choose DCR
Nearly 30 years of experience
DCR has supported people with complex needs across disability support and residential care environments since 1998.
Support built around the individual
DCR takes the time to understand routines, communication preferences, support needs and what helps the person feel settled before determining how support should be delivered.
Strong relationships and clear communication
Good support depends on people being known well. Strong relationships and clear communication help support remain personal, responsive and consistent.
What happens next?
