Supported Living

Thames Support – What we do

Our Health Care services includes Supported Living, which is a model of care and support designed to empower individuals with disabilities or special needs to live fulfilling and independent lives within their communities. It offers personalised assistance and accommodations to promote autonomy, choice, and inclusion.

In Supported Living, individuals receive the necessary support to maintain their own homes or apartments, manage daily tasks, and engage in community activities. This support can include assistance with personal care, household chores, financial management, and accessing healthcare services.

The goal of Supported Living is to enable individuals to lead meaningful lives according to their preferences and abilities. It emphasises person-centered planning, ensuring that support services are tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual. By providing a safe and supportive environment, Supported Living enhances independence, self-determination, semi-independent and overall well-being.

With Supported Living, individuals have the opportunity to live in a place they call their own, make choices about their daily lives, build relationships, and actively participate in their communities. It promotes a sense of belonging, dignity, and control over one’s life, fostering a higher quality of life for those receiving support.
