Our social programs aren’t just about activities – they empower you to thrive! We understand that disabilities can sometimes make social interaction trickier. That’s why we offer a “Social Skill Boost” to help you develop communication, listening, etiquette, and relationship skills. These are all tailored to your specific needs, so you can feel confident and comfortable connecting with others in any situation.
Whether it’s providing in-home aged and dementia care, or disability support, we’re a caring network of real people, taking the time to listen.

Oyster Care is committed to providing exceptional support and assistance to individuals with disabilities, empowering them to lead fulfilling and independent lives. Our comprehensive range of services includes Social & Community participayion.
Social and Community Participation is all about getting involved and connecting with the world around you. It's about participating in activities and experiences that happen outside your home, alongside people in your community. Here's a breakdown of the key aspects:
Â
Social Interaction: SCP focuses on fostering opportunities to interact with others. This could involve joining clubs, attending events, volunteering, or simply striking up conversations with neighbors.
Â
Engagement: It's not just about attending events, but actively participating in them. This might involve contributing your skills and ideas, or simply feeling comfortable and included in the setting.
Â
Community Focus: SCP emphasizes connecting with the broader community, not just close friends or family. It encourages exploring new interests and interacting with people from different backgrounds.
Â
There are many benefits to participating in social and community activities:
Â
Combats Loneliness and Isolation: Social interaction helps us feel connected and supported, reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Â
Boosts Confidence and Self-Esteem: Engaging with others and participating in activities can build confidence and a sense of accomplishment.
Improves Mental and Physical Wellbeing: Studies show social connection can have positive impacts on mental and even physical health.
Â
Develops New Skills and Interests: Exploring new activities and interacting with others can help you learn new skills and discover hidden talents.
Â
Increases Independence and Autonomy: Gaining confidence in social settings can empower individuals to navigate their communities more independently.
Â
The program aims to help people overcome barriers to social interaction and participation in community activities.
Activities can vary depending on the program but might include social skills training, finding and joining community groups or activities, advocating for accessibility, and logistical support.
Â
This program is for people with disabilities who want to be more involved in their communities.
