What supported living means
What do we mean by supported living at home?
Supported living at home is about helping a person live as independently as possible while receiving the level of support they need. The person remains at the centre of decisions about routines, goals, relationships and how support is provided.
Depending on assessment, support may include personal care, cooking, household tasks, medication support, appointments, activities and help to participate in the community.
More than care tasks
Good support should help a person build confidence, maintain skills, make choices and take part in everyday life — not simply have tasks done for them.
