■ What is Social Inclu Home Fukuoka Kasuya-machi Okuma?
1. Day Service Support Type Group Home for People with Disabilities
A day service support type group home is a group home for people with disabilities where individuals with severe disabilities or elderly individuals with disabilities who require continuous support during the day can live while receiving daily life support 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. (*1)
Since a short-term stay facility (*2) is co-located, 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 will be 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 meals, 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 within the facility, leisure activities tailored to the residents are provided. Support for daily financial management is also offered, supporting the residents' independent daily lives.
Before admission, qualified staff will conduct interviews to understand the residents' disability status and the assistance required in daily life, and create individualized support plans 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, support plans are reviewed at shorter cycles than legally mandated, allowing for flexible responses to changes in wishes and conditions, and providing optimal support.
3. Operating System Supporting a Secure Living Environment
Day service support type group homes are subject to legal regulations regarding their operating standards, including staff placement systems and facility equipment. To support the lives of those who require support day and night, a system for 24-hour monitoring and support is required. The facility equipment adopts a barrier-free design, and the living environment needs to be arranged according 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 staffing. (*4)
In addition, the building is barrier-free, with barrier-free toilets, bathing lifts, entrance ramps, and elevators.
