Home Care Guidance
Home Guidance Care is developed to support families and caretakers of clients of the day activity center to stimulate the clients to their full potential and improve their quality of life at home. Home Care Guidance is also available for clients on the waiting list.
The method focuses on decreasing or resolving social, psychological, pedagogic, and practical problems in the home situation of the client as a consequence of an intellectual disability.
It concerns the daily, practical problems and questions that may arise within families and cannot be resolved with verbal advice or tips of (paramedical) staff involved.
​
