Our Supported Living Services
At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we are dedicated to empowering individuals to live the life they choose for themselves. Our supported living services are designed to provide specialised support that allows people to lead happy and fulfilling lives in the comfort of their own homes. We believe in offering seamless and tailored support that builds confidence, fosters independence, and creates uniquely rewarding relationships.
What is Supported Living?
Moving into supported living is often a significant step towards greater independence, whether it’s leaving the family home or embarking on a new chapter in life. At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we understand the importance of this transition and provide friendly encouragement and emotional support to ensure a smooth and positive experience. Supported living means having the freedom to live independently, safe and secure behind your own front door. Our dedicated CarePlus Healthcare Services team is always available to provide personalised support, helping individuals lead more fulfilling lives while being surrounded by like-minded individuals. We also extend our support to families, ensuring a smooth transition for everyone involved.
Creating a Home of One’s Own
At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we advocate for the independence and autonomy of each person we serve. We believe in the personal touch that transforms a house or apartment into a true home that reflects their unique preferences and desires.
We empower the individuals we support to choose where they want to live and with whom they want to share their home.
It is their safe space, a place that truly belongs to them. We respect their choices and work closely with them to create an environment that suits their needs and fosters a sense of belonging and comfort.
Choice and Self-Directed Support
Unlike traditional agencies, CarePlus Healthcare Services provides our staff with decision-making opportunities that empower them to make a real difference. We believe in giving the individuals we support the power to shape their own lives. Basic choices, such as waking up times or meal preferences, are left entirely to their discretion. We recognize and uphold their right to make daily choices that most people take for granted but are often denied to individuals with developmental disabilities or autism. At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we firmly believe that “choice is big” and that every individual deserves the freedom to make their own decisions.
Therapeutic Relationships
At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we value the contributions of every person we support. Our goal goes beyond traditional employer-client relationships; we strive to foster new connections and meaningful relationships at every level. We actively encourage the expansion of social circles and support the development of new friendships, whether platonic or romantic. By nurturing therapeutic relationships, we create a sense of belonging and help individuals build a support network that enhances their overall well-being.
Community Membership
Everyone is part of a community, even if it may not be immediately apparent. At CarePlus Healthcare Services, our aim is to support individuals in becoming active participants in their chosen communities. We encourage reciprocal relationships and active engagement within the community. Active participation demonstrates their ability to live independently and reinforces their status as valued community members. The beauty of community membership lies in its unlimited potential — everyone has the right to be part of the community of their choice.
Flexible, Tailored Support
We understand each individual has unique needs and aspirations. That’s why we offer customisable services and support that cater to the specific requirements of each person. We work closely with the individuals we support to develop person-centred plans that reflect their goals and desires. As their needs evolve with time and changing circumstances, we adapt their support plan accordingly. There are no rigid rules dictating how someone should live their life—our role is to empower individuals to live life on their terms.
This approach not only allows individuals to live the lives they want but also provides valuable learning opportunities for our support staff and supervisors. Customisable services and support teach us the importance of flexibility in everyday life. We believe in a reciprocal learning process where our staff learns from the individuals they serve, just as the individuals we support learn from our staff.
By embracing flexibility, we ensure that our support staff can adapt their roles and responsibilities to better meet the changing needs of the individuals they support. This collaborative approach allows us to provide truly person-centred care that is tailored to each individual’s unique preferences, abilities, and goals.
Best-in-Class Training and Development
To ensure that our support staff have the knowledge and skills to deliver the highest quality of care, we prioritise ongoing training and development. Our comprehensive training programs cover a wide range of topics, including person-centred care, communication, safeguarding, medication management, and more. We invest in the continuous professional development of our staff, enabling them to stay updated with the latest best practices in the health and social care sector.
By providing our support staff with the tools and knowledge they need, we empower them to deliver exceptional care and support. This not only enhances the well-being of the individuals we serve but also creates a positive and nurturing environment within our organisation.
Promoting Diversity and Inclusion
At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion within our workplace. We believe that a diverse workforce enriches our organisation and enhances the quality of care we provide. We actively foster an inclusive environment where every individual is valued, respected, and treated with dignity.
We actively promote equal opportunities for all, regardless of age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. We strive to create a workplace that embraces and celebrates diversity, ensuring that every staff member feels safe, supported, and empowered to contribute their unique skills and perspectives.
Environmental Sustainability
We understand the importance of environmental sustainability and its impact on our communities and the planet. At CarePlus Healthcare Services, we are committed to reducing our environmental footprint and promoting eco-friendly practices. We actively seek ways to minimise waste, conserve energy, and use sustainable resources in our operations. From implementing recycling programs to using energy-efficient appliances, we continuously strive to make environmentally conscious choices in our day-to-day operations.
In conclusion, at CarePlus Healthcare Services, we are passionate about providing supported living services that empower individuals to live fulfilling lives in their own homes. We prioritise person-centred care, flexibility, diversity, and environmental sustainability. Our dedicated staff, comprehensive training programs, and commitment to continuous improvement ensure that we deliver the highest quality of
care and support to the individuals we serve. We are proud to be a trusted provider of supported living services and look forward to making a positive impact in the lives of our service users and the communities we serve.
