PHYSICAL DISABILITY SUPPORT

Personalised Physical Disability Support That Promotes Choice, Confidence and Independence

Living with a physical disability can affect mobility and everyday routines, but it should not prevent someone from making choices, pursuing their interests or living life on their own terms.

Our physical disability support service provides respectful, person-centred assistance designed around each individual’s abilities, goals, routines and preferences.

Whether support is needed with personal care, mobility, household activities or accessing the community, our carers focus on enabling independence rather than taking control away from the person.

WHAT IS PHYSICAL DISABILITY SUPPORT?

Practical Support Built Around Your Abilities, Goals and Everyday Life

Physical disability support provides personalised assistance for people whose mobility or physical abilities affect aspects of daily living.

Support may be required from birth, following an accident or illness, or because of a long-term or progressive condition. Because every person’s circumstances are different, care should never be based on assumptions about what someone can or cannot do.

Our carers work with each individual to understand how they prefer to receive support and which activities they wish to manage independently.

Depending on the care assessment, assistance may include personal care, mobility support, transfers, meal preparation, medication support, household tasks, companionship and help accessing work, education, appointments or community activities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does physical disability support include?

Support may include personal care, mobility assistance, transfers, medication support, meal preparation, household tasks, companionship and help accessing appointments or community activities. The exact service will depend on the individual assessment and care plan.

Will carers encourage me to remain independent?

Yes. Our approach is to support individuals to do as much as they safely can and wish to do. Carers provide assistance where needed without unnecessarily taking control.

Can carers support wheelchair users?

Yes, subject to an assessment of the individual’s needs, mobility equipment, home environment and any training required for safe support.

Can carers help with transfers?

Transfer assistance may be provided where it has been assessed, included in the care plan and assigned to carers with the appropriate training. Any required equipment must also be suitable and available.

Do you provide physiotherapy?

No. Our carers do not replace physiotherapists or other regulated healthcare professionals. They may, however, support an individual to follow agreed routines or exercises where this has been appropriately documented and is within the care plan.

Can support include going to work, college or appointments?

Depending on the assessed needs and agreed care plan, carers may accompany individuals to appointments, educational settings, community activities, shopping or other planned destinations.

Can physical disability support be combined with personal care?

Yes. Support is often combined with personal care, medication assistance, domestic assistance, companionship, overnight care or other services.
