■ Group Homes for People with Disabilities: Welfare Infrastructure Supporting Safe Living

By receiving necessary support, group homes for people with disabilities play a crucial role in enabling individuals with disabilities to achieve independent living and continue residing safely in their familiar communities.

1. Day-service support type group home for people with disabilities
A day-service support type group home (Note 1) is a group home where severely disabled individuals, elderly individuals with disabilities, and others requiring continuous daytime support can live with 24-hour, 365-day assistance for daily life.
With an attached short-term stay facility (Note 2), individuals other than residents can also use it as temporary accommodation when family members are out, require rest, or in emergencies.
2. Support tailored to disability characteristics
24-hour support tailored to the individual's disability situation is provided to enable even severely disabled individuals to live independently.
In addition to daily life support such as bathing and excretion, meals are prepared according to the resident's needs with nutritionally balanced menus, including blended or porridge options, 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 within the facility, leisure activities tailored to each resident are prepared. We also support daily financial management, thereby assisting residents in their independent daily lives.
Before admission, qualified staff will conduct interviews regarding the disability situation and required assistance in daily life, and an individualized support plan will be created according to each person's wishes and disability situation. After admission, continuous observation and recording of daily life, progress, and changes in condition are maintained, establishing a system to quickly grasp any changes in status. Furthermore, periodic reviews of the support plan are conducted in shorter cycles than mandated by law, allowing flexible response to changes in wishes or condition and providing optimal support.
3. Operational system supporting a safe living environment
Day-service support type group homes are subject to operational standards defined by law, including staff allocation and facility equipment. A system providing 24-hour monitoring and support is required to assist those who need support day and night. The facility design incorporates barrier-free features, and a living environment adapted to the disability situation is necessary.
Social Inclu Home's policy is to exceed legally required support systems, for example, by assigning two staff members per unit (Note 3) during night hours (Note 4).
In addition, the building was newly constructed specifically for a group home, featuring barrier-free toilets, bathing lifts, and an entrance.
