SIL Software
Save time and stay compliant with comprehensive NDIS software for disability care providers.
Features
Supported Independent Living Software for NDIS Providers that does it all.
At Nightingale we understand that SIL isn’t just ordinary NDIS. It has its own processes and demands that are different to other support arrangements. From rosters of care to participant placements, Nightingale makes SIL simple. One platform to support your staff, match participants to the right homes, and stay compliant with NDIS standards.
Simplify compliance and audits
SIL providers balance constant checks across housing, staffing, and participant support. Nightingale centralises records, incidents, and reporting in one place, so compliance is built in and audits are stress free.
Smarter rosters, better coverage
Coordinating 24/7 schedules across multiple homes is challenging. Nightingale builds rosters that align staff qualifications with participant needs, reduce last minute changes, and ensure safe, consistent care.
Full visibility across homes
Managing multiple SIL houses often means fragmented systems and delayed insights. Nightingale gives you a live overview of occupancy, budgets, and staffing across all homes, so you can make decisions with confidence.
PURPOSE
Clarity and Control for SIL Providers
Delivering Supported Independent Living means balancing the needs of participants with the realities of staffing, funding, and compliance. Nightingale helps you bring all the moving parts together in one place, giving your team the visibility and confidence to provide consistent, high quality support.

Why payroll systems alone don’t cut it
You know the drill by now. It’s the last week of the month and suddenly everyone’s asking “where are the timesheets?” Your managers are texting staff who’ve gone MIA. Someone’s written their hours on the back of a coffee stained receipt. Another person swears they worked overtime but there’s no record of it anywhere.
Ringing any bells? You’re far from alone. The good news? This way of working can actually end.
Nightingale’s payroll system is built specifically for Australian care providers who deal with complex award structures, multiple funding sources and ever changing compliance requirements. We understand that your staff work across different clients, funding streams, and service types, all requiring accurate cost allocation and award interpretation. Our platform captures this complexity automatically, so your payroll data is always audit ready and compliant. No chasing, no guessing, no stress.
Real-Time Timesheet Automation
- Timesheets complete automatically as staff clock in, complete shifts and record activities through our mobile app.
- Geo-location verification ensures accurate attendance and time tracking, while integrated break management captures all billable and non-billable time according to award requirements.
Seamless Payroll Integration
- Flexible export options and API integrations ensure your timesheet data flows exactly where it needs to go whether that’s MYOB, Xero, KeyPay or any other payroll system.
- Customisable data formatting matches your payroll provider’s requirements, while automated validation checks catch errors before data export.
Smart Award Interpretation
- Built-in award interpretation automatically calculates penalty rates, overtime, shift allowances, and public holiday loadings based on current Fair Work standards.
- Automated compliance checking ensures all timesheet calculations meet award requirements, reducing the risk of underpayments and compliance issues.
Automated Data Flow & Export
- Real-time synchronisation of roster and attendance data ensures smooth information flow to staff timesheets, eliminating manual data entry and streamlining workplace operations.
- Manager approval workflows allow staff to submit timesheets for moderation and approval before automatic transfer to your payroll system for processing.
