■ Disability Group Homes are Welfare Infrastructure Supporting Safe Living

While there are various welfare support and employment services for people with disabilities to live with peace of mind, housing options remain limited. This is due to challenges such as difficulty living alone for those who need daily support, anxiety about "after parents" even when living with family, and regional disparities in support systems and acceptance, which affect the ease of living depending on the area.

Disability group homes are facilities that serve as a foundation for community living, supporting people with disabilities who face such housing challenges and anxieties.

Disability group homes play an important role as a system that enables people with disabilities to achieve independent living by receiving necessary support and continue to live with peace of mind in their familiar communities.

Through the operation of disability group homes, Social Inclu Co., Ltd. supports the lives of people with disabilities, promotes their independence, and works to solve the social problem of housing shortages for people with severe disabilities.

■ About Social Inclu Home Izumo Tsunematsucho

1. Daytime Service Support Type Disability Group Home
Daytime service support type group homes are disability group homes where individuals who require continuous support during the day, such as those with severe disabilities or elderly individuals with disabilities, can live while receiving 24-hour, 365-day daily life support. (※1)

Since a short-term stay facility (※2) is also provided, individuals other than residents can also use it as temporary accommodation when their families are out, need rest, or in emergencies.

2. Support Content Tailored to Disability Characteristics
To enable people with severe disabilities to live independently, support tailored to their disability status is provided 24 hours a day.

In addition to daily life support such as bathing and excretion, meals are prepared according to the residents' needs, including nutritionally balanced menus, blended foods, and porridge, and meal assistance is provided to those who require it. Health management and medication management are conducted daily, and staff accompany residents to hospital visits and shopping. During the day at the facility, leisure activities tailored to the residents are provided. Support for daily financial management is also offered, supporting the independent daily lives of residents.

Before admission, staff with specialized qualifications will interview residents about their disability status and the assistance required for daily life, and create an individualized support plan tailored to each person's wishes and disability status. After admission, a system is in place to quickly grasp changes in condition through continuous observation and recording of daily life, progress, and course. Furthermore, periodic reviews of support plans are conducted on a shorter cycle than legally mandated, allowing for flexible responses to changes in wishes and conditions, and providing optimal support.

3. Operational System Supporting a Safe Living Environment
Daytime service support type group homes are subject to legal operating standards regarding staff placement and facility equipment. To support the lives of those who require assistance day and night, a system of 24-hour monitoring and support is required. The facility equipment adopts a barrier-free design, and it is necessary to develop a living environment tailored to the disability status.

Social Inclu Home's policy is to provide a support system that exceeds legal requirements, such as setting a standard of two staff members per unit (※3) for night-time placement. (※4)

In addition, the building was newly constructed for the opening of the group home, featuring barrier-free toilets and bathing facilities.
