Assistance with Daily Life Tasks in a Group or Shared Living Arrangement

Diligent Care supports in helping our participants thrive in a shared living environment, whether the arrangement is temporary or long term. Our clients will be assisted and/or supervised as they complete day to day activities at home, helping them to live their lives as independently and autonomously as possible. Short term accommodation and assistance (for example, respite care).

Experience has shown us that, shared living arrangements are good solutions for our clients who do not like to live on their own, instead preferring the company and companionship of roommates. Shared living arrangements present our clients with a great opportunity to enhance their social skills by meeting and befriending new people, and learning how to help each other live with independence.

Generally, the arrangement will consist of a residential unit in which two or more people with comparable needs live together. In addition to availing themselves of support provided by outside organisations, the residents help each other complete daily activities and share costs, developing lasting friendships along the way.

People with disabilities can have a hard time completing their daily personal activities without assistance.
