How It Works – Getting Started is Easy!
At Support Network, we empower individuals with the appropriate support to live independently, confidently, and with dignity.
The right support is life-transforming for individuals with disability. A support model that focuses on consistency, trust, and personal control makes a huge difference in the quality of life.
Traditional care providers have a tendency to roster support workers based on who is available, and therefore there are frequent changes and disruptions to care.
The Direct Care Model puts individuals in the driver's seat of their care by allowing them to have the power to choose their support workers of choice.
This approach ensures continuity, builds stronger relationships, and creates a more personalized experience.
Let’s explore the key benefits of a Direct Care Model, how to find the right support worker, and why this model leads to better long-term care outcomes.
A Direct Care Model is a person-centered disability support model that gives individuals control over the selection of their caregivers.
Instead of receiving unknown support workers, individuals can select workers they feel comfortable with, to receive their care in a way that responds to their choice, routine, and lifestyle.
This model is unlike conventional support systems where service providers change caregivers frequently, resulting in inconsistency, communication breakdown, and discomfort for the individual receiving care.
By granting greater control to individuals, the Direct Care Model enhances not only the quality of care but also emotional well-being, independence, and general satisfaction.
When individuals choose their support workers, they receive care that is tailored to their specific needs. Whether they require assistance with mobility, personal care, or social participation, a known caregiver understands their choices and way of life.
Take, for example, a person with autism who fares better with routine and predictability. If the caregiver is changing all the time, the person may become anxious and distressed. The Direct Care Model takes away this uncertainty as the same support worker can remain part of their life.
A good, trusting relationship between support worker and client enhances emotional and mental well-being. Individuals become more comfortable over time in expressing their needs, so communication and understanding are better.
For most, intimate care tasks like bathing or dressing can be humiliating or uncomfortable with another caregiver. Being serviced by a known support worker enables those times to be less embarrassing and easier.
Recurring caregiver changeovers can be irritating. People are unique and have their approaches, which could disrupt customary routines. A consistent caregiver is aware of the client's routines, so daily tasks are simpler and less stressful.
Life has no fixed schedule, nor does the provision of care services. The Direct Care Model allows individuals to arrange support when they require it most—at whatever time of day for everyday tasks, appointments, or social activities.
Having a choice in support workers allows individuals to be in control of their care pathway. Instead of having to adapt to new caregivers all the time, they can develop long-term relationships and be actively engaged in making choices about their welfare.
Choosing a support worker is a significant decision and one that requires careful consideration. Here is a step-by-step guide to choosing the right one:
Before selecting a caregiver, it is essential to identify what type of care is needed. Start by identifying whether assistance with personal care, mobility, or medical care is required. While some need help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, or medication, others require help with mobility and physical activity.
Other than personal care, domestic assistance can also be the highest priority. Shopping, cleaning, and cooking can be hard to manage alone, and a support worker can provide relief in these areas. Social support is also taken into account. If getting out and about in the community, attending social activities, or simply having companionship is a high priority, then a caregiver who can facilitate these things can be beneficial.
The personality of a caregiver significantly affects the quality of care you receive. More than their experience and skills, their capacity to reach you on a personal level matters in terms of day-to-day interaction.
You need to find somebody who honors your values and lifestyle so that their style of caregiving is something that works for you.
You should have good communication since a caregiver ought to listen attentively to your needs, reassure you, and also adjust their care to suit you.
A calm, patient, and friendly demeanor is also crucial. The caregiver should be able to handle problematic situations with grace and make you feel comfortable in their presence.
If you have specific hobbies or interests, it helps to find someone who enjoys them or has respect for them so that you can build a strong rapport.
A caregiver familiar with your personality and your preferences can make your surroundings positive and nurturing, where you feel respected and understood.
trained or certified to handle the level of care required.
Whether it is first aid, disability care training, or even specific medical expertise, their qualifications should match your needs.
Experience is also vital. A caregiver who has experience dealing with people in circumstances similar to yours will be more capable of delivering quality care.
If you have special medical or mobility requirements, it's important to select someone who possesses the knowledge and hands-on experience to deal with them effectively. Asking for references or reading reviews from past clients can also determine their competence and reliability.
Communication during this period is key. In case there is a problem, it can be attended to early to make any adjustments or improvements. Providing feedback allows the caregiver to understand your expectations and adjust their work.
If, after the trial period, you find that they are not the most suitable, you should be in a position to acquire another one who is more suited to attend to your needs.
This way, you receive the best possible care from someone you know and feel comfortable with.
