Exploring Types of Disability Support  

There are various types of disability support designed to cater to the diverse needs of individuals with disabilities. These range from personal care and household assistance to more specialised services like therapy and skill development. Understanding the spectrum of available supports is crucial for identifying the most appropriate and effective interventions for each individual.

Supported Independent Living: A Path to Autonomy  

Supported independent living offers individuals with disabilities the opportunity to live as independently as possible, with the necessary support to manage their daily lives. This approach is centred around the individual’s needs and aspirations, empowering them to make choices and take control of their living arrangements.

Supported independent living is a service designed to assist individuals with disabilities in managing their daily tasks within their own homes, thereby promoting their independence. It’s about providing the right level of support to enable individuals to live safely and comfortably, making their own decisions about their lives and participating fully in the community.
