Individualised Support Services

INDIVIDUALISED SUPPORT

Assist people of all ages with low to complex support needs to be engaged and valued members of their communities. Each participant is supported with an individualised program experience that responds uniquely to their needs and aspirations.
Life Stream Australia's Individualised Support Program provides Participants with the opportunity to achieve their goals, take managed risks with support staff at the ready, and work outside the box of what many communities think is beyond the capacity of people with a disability.
The organisation is extremely proud of the commitment of our Support Workers, and share with them the incredible pride in our Participants as they work their way through everyday life.

Greenhouse and Wattle House

In 2012, Life Stream Australia opened Greenhouse, our first centre based overnight service located in Rockhampton. Greenhouse can accommodate up to 4 persons (depending on support needs) in a welcoming family home environment. Greenhouse is fully accessible for individuals with mobility challenges, including a fully accessible bathroom, hoist and furniture and fittings to maximise independence and comfort. Life Stream Australia will work alongside any funding agency on either a short term or recurrent basis to fund your stay. Greenhouse is available to guests all year long.

In 2022, following the model of Greenhouse, Life Stream Australia was pleased to open Wattle House in Brisbane. Wattle House, while completely different in style and surroundings, seeks to replicate the successes experienced in Rockhampton, recognising the practices and processes that ensure every visitor to the house feels welcome, has the space and resources to achieve their goals, and is able to access a fully equipped and functional home for the development of independent living skills.

Community Access & Skill Development Programs

Life Stream Australia’s Community Access and Skill Development programs enhance each participants interests and strengths by assisting them to explore new opportunities and engage with their communities of choice. Life Stream Australia encourages participants to identify opportunities for growth and development.
Community Access and Skill Development programs:

Provide the unique support a participant needs to keep connected and make new friends
Link participants with a wide range of leisure and recreation opportunities that enhance their quality of life
Flexibly assist participants in work, study or engage in volunteering opportunities
Connect participants to their community through travel training or support
Support participants where they may need extra help, such as attending medical appointments

Independent Living Support

Life Stream Australia provides Independent Living Support services to individuals and groups living in their own homes. The support provided can be direct assistance; planning; and developmental assistance as the participant requires.
Independent Living Support can include:

Provide unique developmental opportunities participants need to enjoy their home and live safely
Link participants with neighbours and local community supports.
Being flexible about when and how the participants needs are met within their home
Connect and use local services close to the participants home.
Support participants with running their home, i.e., shopping, cleaning, washing, cooking.

Life Stream Australia believes that through participation in community activities, recreation, leisure & sport and having friendships and responsibilities, people develop all types of skills and lead healthy, active and meaningful lives. With your financial donation we can support the essential work for people with disability and their families.
