When working on your SIL Funding Application and Roster of Care, you will need to understand the difference between wake over - or an 'active overnight' supports, and sleep over supports. These detail the kind of supports you need overnight.
If you need overnight supports, there are two types:
Active overnights are where your support worker needs to be awake during normal sleeping hours, to support you because of your disability. It could also be to support one of your housemates because of their disability.
Sleepovers are where your support worker can sleep for an eight-hour shift. They might just need to give you support sometimes when you need it. For example, you might need help to go to the bathroom.
It's important to know that a sleepover includes up to two hours of active support each night. If you need more than this, your provider can claim extra support hours based on the time of day, and day of the week the support was provided.
