Social Inclusion Services Program report and presentation

To understand the impact the program has had on the individual’s that receive support, via deep understanding of the following:

  1. The service support experience – what supports have been received and how well aligned are the needs of the recipient?
  2. How individual recipients, family members, staff and volunteers have benefitted from support provision – exploring both emotional and rational anecdotes, experiences and evidence.
  3. Positive outcomes achieved because of participation for recipients, family members, staff and volunteers – exploring physical, mental, behavioural and social outcomes.
  4. Explore the impact achieved on the use of other services (e.g. increasing social connection at meal times delaying move to a nursing home, or the need for a higher level of support in home).
  5. Demonstrate the benefits of working from a Person-Centred and Wellness Approach and from a Social Role Valorisation (SRV) and the good things in life framework.
