Case Study Spotlight: Last-minute nursing care for an individual with learning disabilities. ◻️ Requirement: A local authority contacted us to provide immediate care provision to a female adult with Autism and extreme behaviours of distress, as her current care provider had withdrawn due to an increase in aggression towards others and damage to property. ◻️ Solution: The same day, we established a core team of nurses and healthcare assistants with the necessary skills to manage challenging behaviours to keep the client and others safe. Working with the local authority and Learning Disability team, we stabilised and maintained the care package, greatly reducing the incidents. 👉 Request a last-minute nurse today: https://lnkd.in/eisrhxMK #SuccessStory #CaseStudy #ClientSuccess #ClientTestimonial #TheGuild #LearningDisabilityCare

🏠 Family Options program is now recruiting caring individuals and families to mentor and care for developmentally delayed adults in their homes. Home Care Providers create a warm and loving family setting in which these adults can lead full and productive lives. This program offers adults with disabilities an opportunity to live in a less restrictive environment and is an alternative to institutional care, hospitals, or group homes. It allows the care provider to earn extra income and work from home. You can make a difference in someone’s life while creating your job in home care. This is a great self-employment opportunity for anyone who is qualified, and is especially good for Nurses, Teachers, or Stay At Home Adults. 💛🌸 Visit our website for information about our services! ➡️ foptionsca.com #familyoptions #homecareproviders #inclusiveliving #caringcommunities #developmentaldisabilities #selfemploymentopportunity #homecarementors #empowerthroughcare #makeadifference #alternativetoinstitutionalcare #workfromhome #supportingindependence #inclusivehousing #createyourjob
