Oyster Care’s Mission & Objectives
Oyster Care is a dedicated disability support service provider with a mission to empower individuals to achieve their goals and live life to the fullest. We understand the unique challenges faced by people with disabilities. Imagine navigating the NDIS system with a trusted guide by your side. Oyster Care has everything you need from the NDIS to unlock your potential and get the support you deserve.
Many people with disabilities need a little extra help with daily tasks. Some might need assistance getting around, while others might find loud noises or talking to people overwhelming. The good news is that everyone’s different, and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
Oyster Care understands this. We create personalised support plans to fit each person’s unique needs. Our goal is to help people reach their full potential and live happy, fulfilling lives. Think of them as a friendly guide who can help you through the NDIS system and get the support you deserve. We create personalised plans that consider your unique needs and goals. Plus, we are financially stable, so you can count on our support for the long run, just like you’d want from a friend. Our goal, after all, is to see you succeed.
Discover how we personalise our help to unlock your potential and make your dreams a reality. Our dedication goes beyond just everyday needs – it’s about building a brighter future where you can flourish and be a part of your community. Here’s why Oyster Care does more than just offer basic support:
Breaking Down Barriers: The Need for Personalised Support
The needs of individuals with disabilities and the elderly are incredibly diverse. A one-size-fits-all approach to care simply doesn’t work. What empowers one person might not be effective for another. This is why Oyster Care is committed to personalised care plans that address the unique needs and aspirations of each individual we serve.
Here’s how Oyster Care empowers individuals and fosters inclusive communities:
1. Enhancing Impactful Care: Beyond One-Size-Fits-All
The foundation of Oyster Care’s approach lies in personalised care. We reject a one-size-fits-all mentality, recognising that each individual’s journey is unique. That’s why we invest significant time and resources into developing individual plans that address the specific physical, emotional, and social needs of participants in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and aged care services.
Support Goals: Focusing on achieving individual aspirations and maximising independence.
Service Types: A range of services designed to meet specific needs, such as personal care assistance, skill-building programs, or therapy sessions.
Preferred Delivery Methods: Ensuring flexibility and convenience, this could involve in-home support, telehealth consultations, or participation in community programs.
There are various situations where a plan can benefit an individual in need, such as the following examples:
- Individuals with Physical Disability: This plan could include assistance with daily living activities such as:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Other specific needs based on the assessment
- Individuals Facing Mental Health Challenges: This plan could include a combination of:
- Therapy sessions
- Social support groups
- Skill-building workshops
Each plan is meticulously crafted to address the unique needs of the individual, maximising their potential for independence and well-being.
2. Community Empowerment: Stronger Together
- Local authorities
- Community organisations
- Other service providers
By weaving together this network of resources, Oyster Care helps bridge the gap between individuals with disabilities and the elderly, and the services and support they need. We create a supportive ecosystem where everyone has a role to play in ensuring the well-being of the most vulnerable in our society.
