Individualised Living Options (ILO)

Looking for independent living with less than 24-hour support? Novita’s Individualised Living Options (ILO) package of supports lets you decide: 

  • whether you'll live with friends, family or a host
  • how much support you receive at home or in the community
  • a routine that balances independence with reassurance.
