Pathways Support Services provides caring disability services assisting clients to live more rewarding lives
For those with loved ones who face the sometimes-challenging lifestyle of living with a disability, there’s nothing more important than finding a caring and personalised disability service provider.
It’s a fact that our founder and her team know all too well, having worked with clients battling mental illness and various disabilities for many heartbreaking years.
The Pathways Support Services team is driven by the desire to assist NDIS participants to overcome the challenges faced when trying to find somewhere safe to live and where they can receive the highest standard of care and support.
We are committed to enhancing the lives of people with an intellectual, physical or psychiatric disability, knowing it takes understanding, compassion and dedication to care for people with a disability and their families.
Our Vision
Pathways Support Services is a team of experienced professionals, who genuinely care about the clients we are privileged to support. We are committed to making genuine connections with our clients in delivering personalised services in a safe, family-like, environment that is their home.
Our vision is:
“To support clients with a disability to live independently in home environments where they are genuinely cared for by a supportive network of professionals that celebrate their achievements and development.”
We believe everyone deserves to live in a happy and harmonious environment; to feel safe, comfortable and secure; to be in charge of their own lives and make their own choices.
We believe people with a disability have the right to be valued as individuals and access services in a non-discriminatory way.
NDIS Registered and Accredited provider
Pathways Support Services is an approved provider under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), and our senior team have worked under this model since its inception and, prior to that, the Human Services Quality Framework.
Clients can be confident that our experience ensures we comply with the NDIS Practice Standards and maintain delivery of high-quality services, which are audited each year.
Please note: we are not an aged care or homelessness service. You will require an approved NDIS Plan to access our supports.
Why you should prefer Pathways for Supported Independent Living Accommodation support
Pathways support services stands out from other providers with our truly professional carers working in our Supported Independent Living accommodation on a regular rotation of shifts (based on client’s needs). Our teams in houses typically consist of 4 support workers, allowing for consistency and familiarity of support and continuity of care. This approach is more positive for the client’s care and development. Greater trust is built with carers who positively support social connection with existing and new friendship circles and investment in community involvement. Less staff changes also means less ‘traffic’ and greater home ‘ownership’ by the disabled person.
We invest in developing our clients’ skills, independence and supporting them to achieve their goals
In addition to our accommodation and specialist support services, Pathways Support Services works with young adults living in vulnerable situations and with low levels of disability to develop the appropriate life skills to transition to independent living. Skills include: cooking; cleaning; basic hygiene; money handling; shopping and more.
