Help for Supported Residential Services

Promoting health, connection and meaning

Our team works with Supported Residential Services so they can help their residents to look after their health, connect with others and find fun and meaningful things to do. Supported Residential Services provide accommodation and a low level of care for people who need some support for everyday living, such as people with disability and those who are frail.

If you live in Supported Residential Services, we can provide:

• training to help you get around your community with confidence
• priority access to services like physiotherapy and dentistry
• health assessments and medication reviews
• help with projects, like building edible gardens
• special events like yearly dance parties
• support to access to education and training 
• help to access community social groups
• gentle exercise classes
• support to get back to work
• supported holidays.

We can also assist staff of Supported Residential Services to:

• develop stronger relationships with other services
• build skills and capacity to better manage residents’ care needs
• create and maintain a home-like environment for residents.
