25.01.2022 We need these voices to become louder in our society to protect our most vulnerable members. The majority of support workers are absolute gems and work incredibly hard, but as with anything there is always a few who ruin it for the rest. Will you be a voice?

24.01.2022 Check out this fun new program to build Skills for Life! Aimed at children under 7, through gymnastic-based activities your child will be assisted to develop mo...vement, balance, strength communication, and social skills. Kudos to YMCA Gymnastics Seaford, Flinders University and the team of exercise scientists and developmental educators for putting together this great inclusive program.

21.01.2022 Do you even know where to begin with NDIS paperwork and record keeping?!!??!!Get a support coordinator who will listen to your preferences on this subject, engage them and brainstorm your little hearts out. It can be overwhelming and time consuming but there are people and tools to help. Don’t engage a tool..... find a good tool # JourneyCare #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith ... #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals #choiceandcontrol #navigatingthendis #ndisgoals #ndisplanrenewal #ndisfirstplan See more

18.01.2022 R u okay? Because let’s face it, 2020 has been one hell of a ride! Journey Care can support your family finding the supports that it needs... we are not limited to disability.... we are here to assist those who need it.

18.01.2022 Everyone is on a journey of sorts..... this really resonates with us as we realise that we all make mistakes inadvertently.... we have to be kind to ourselves... keep learning, keep fighting, keep advocating.

18.01.2022 This looks pretty cool for some climbing, gross motor challenges and sensory seeking fun!

18.01.2022 This year it’s going to be a little different..... but that seems to be the state of play of 2020........

18.01.2022 Journey Care is a Support Coordination Service based in Adelaide. Journey Care provides support to you and your family if your child needs a little extra help, or have a clinical diagnosis and need more structured supports. After talking with you about your needs, Journey Care will assist you in developing goals. They will coordinate support services to help your child and family work towards these goals. This may be therapists, support workers or other disability sup...port services to make life easier for you all. Journey Care can help you implement your NDIS plan, making the most of your funding, whilst giving you tips and tricks on how to administer your plan. Email [email protected] for more details about the service and pricing. #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals #livingyourbestlife

17.01.2022 And just like that Journey Care was born...... hoping to do more good, and help more people. We can support private clients and clients with NDIS plans that are self or plan managed. Contact us to see if we are a good match to walk a part of your journey together.... #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills... #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals #livingyourbestlife See more

17.01.2022 School holidays programs for our special ones are hard to come by..... this looks like a fabulous range of activities for those thrill seeking little adventurers......

16.01.2022 Spring symbolises new beginnings.... so it's an excellent time to launch Journey Care - Support Coordination Service. We hope that this new venture can reach into the Adelaide Hills and Eastern suburbs communities to help those on the Journey who need a little extra heart, a little extra direction and a peace of mind to know you are not doing it alone. If you have a child that is not reaching their milestones or has recently had a diagnosis that you are grappling with, please connect with us to see if we can provide support. Our support can come in various forms, connecting you to disability supports, therapists, in home supports like cleaners, gardeners. The list is endless and the only limitation is our imagination. We can't wait to start the journey with you!

15.01.2022 You are working super hard right?! You probably don’t even know how hard you are working because you are just doing what needs to be done. Engaging a good support coordinator can ease some of the load. The support coordinator role is designed to be a capacity building role.... what that means is that we help develop your skills to manage the complexities of your situation.... it may be going through your service agreements with providers to ensure you are happy with them, ...or helping you to find efficient and timely ways to record keep all the NDIS administrivia, or helping you to network with families in similar situations.... the list is endless. SC is designed to assist, not for you to feel like you are failing. How does the proverb go.... Many hands make light work? #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals See more

14.01.2022 Even clients well down the road of an NDIS Journey do not understand what Support Coordination is...... (and do not feel bad about this.... we are often not told about services and left in the dark to find out for ourselves) Here is the NDIS definition.......... The NDIS describes Support Coordination as supporting participants to direct their lives, not just their services. This may include resolving points of crisis and developing resilience in the Participant's network. ...Often included is supporting people to connect with service providers, and also crucially includes exploring non-NDIS supports, navigating mainstream services and building capacity to coordinate all formal and informal supports to live "an ordinary life". Yeah it's a lot isn't it....... so let's do it together.........

14.01.2022 Our siblings are just as important as our special ones. We are so lucky to have Siblings Australia right here in SA and doing wonderful things, and on the cusp of doing even more wonderful things.... now is the time to have your say! Are you a sib? Or a parentsib? Either way your ideas and thoughts are important to improve the plight of our precious sibs!

13.01.2022 The disability sector and the parenting journey can be filled with very strong opinions about a range of topics. It can be quite overwhelming at times. It is important for us all to remember that our journey is unique... we may have empathy but we cannot truly understand another’s situation. It is also important to remember that the grief cycle is very real for many people whose path hasn’t panned out as they have expected. We dip in and out of that grief cycle and at times have capacity for anything, and others absolutely nothing. Recognising those cycles and accepting it can be very healing. We don’t have to be warriors all of the time, we need to recharge. Be kind to yourself, be kind to others.... it’s that simple. #bekind #uniquepaths #uniquejourney #griefcycle #disability #disabilityjourney

13.01.2022 Calling all AAC users!! Here is a competition run by the amazing Two Way Street.... (who are the bees knees when talking AAC in Adelaide)...... Have fun combining film making and AAC use..... see below

12.01.2022 2020.... the year to get creative about EVERYTHING! This group are big on YouTube for getting your kids bodies and minds moving! They are educators disguised as performers so both adults and kids will love them. So if you’re in iso..... or maybe just feel like you are, being stuck at home with kids perhaps have a little look.... https://www.bouncepatrol.com.

12.01.2022 Carers SA is a fabulous resource for many different reasons. If you haven’t registered yet it would be worth doing it (even if you don’t need their service now, something may change down the track causing you to need them.... needing emergency respite for example). Their model and funding has changed so if you were registered years ago, it would be worth touching base with them so that your client file is up to date with them. Lovely people who really care about the carers......

12.01.2022 SEEKING AUTISTIC YOUNG PEOPLE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THEIR PASSIONS, INTERESTS & TALENTS In the coming days, we will be announcing the details of our AWETISM 2...020 Virtual Expo (scheduled for Friday, 20 November), an online version via the event platform vFairs of our annual flagship event that showcases the in-depth knowledge and talents of Autistic young people.

11.01.2022 If you are looking for support workers Hire Up is a great platform to post an advert for the types of support you are after. Make it very clear in your advert who they will be supporting and what tasks are required. Getting the right people involved in your team can take time, but when it all comes together it can change lives....

11.01.2022 Everyone needs a laugh.... especially on the weekend.... But if you are going through a tough time..... and don’t have an Uber.....

09.01.2022 Plan managedAgency Managed Self Managed It can be a minefield to know how to manage your NDIS Plan. Especially if it’s your first plan or you are coming up for Plan Renewal and are confused about your options. The choice is a very personal one, so you need to think about many variables: 1) how much choice and control you want? (Maximum choice and control and value for money choose Self Managed ) 2) How much time do you have? If time is super precious and you want a ...good degree of choice but don’t want more work choose Plan Managed Agency managed is the final option and gives you very little control but is the least work (This is an extremely simplified analogy for the sake of this platform, you need to do detailed research into your options to see what is right for you and your family)...... good luck with your decision making! We are hear to help when making these big decisions that impact your life. # JourneyCare #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals #choiceandcontrol #navigatingthendis #ndisgoals #ndisplanrenewal #ndisfirstplan

09.01.2022 https://fb.me/e/3nF9oLaxs Some of our clients May like to tell their children’s school about these types of training opportunities to support our family members.....

08.01.2022 These are worrying times in SA for many. Please go to www.sahealth.sa.gov.au for updates and links to all kinds of support services. Stay safe SA and together we will get through this

06.01.2022 This situation is every parent’s worst nightmare. We must learn from this and have open circles of support for our special people, in all the various settings. A TEAM of supports is critical so that there can never be complacency and there is accountability on each of the providers. Journey Care are an INDEPENDENT provider so we are aware of using a range of providers (This means we are free from bias other than the bias of hearing great things about providers in our community!) The take away message from this situation is to set your loved ones up with a team of supports... at whatever level that may be. We want lots of eyes and ears when trusting people with our more vulnerable members of the community. We MUST look after those who can’t always look after themselves. https://indaily.com.au//police-raid-disability-agency-ove/

05.01.2022 If you are in Australia and your child has a phone you MUST get this app downloaded. The Emergency+ app now has 'what3words' helping communicate caller's locati...on by just saying 3 words provided in bottom-left of screen. Accurate as a GPS co-ordinate but easier to say. Most teens have no idea where they are and this can save their lives or the lives of others. This App is Australian and is suitable for any phone. The good thing is that you don't need to know where you are - a particular issue with kids that might be out and about. You just tell the 000 operator the 3 words on the bottom left of the screen and they will know where you are.

05.01.2022 Mental health is a hot topic now, more than ever before due to COVID 19. Add in the challenges of having a family member with additional needs and it’s been quite the year. This may be a useful starting point to put yourself back on the map in terms of your mental health. Please reach out if you are struggling in this area... there are more readily available resources now than there ever has been. Email [email protected] and I will email you some resources no questions asked...... xx

05.01.2022 Have you fallen in a hole? Chances are you don’t even realise it. You just keep doing what you need to do don’t you? Or you freeze the activity that is required because you just need a break from it. It’s a roller coaster of activity and then apathy when you’re feeling overwhelmed. We understand, we are parents too and have lived a similar reality. It might be time for you to contact your support coordinator to outsource some of these tasks... or gain insight into new opport...unities. If you don’t have a SC yet, if you have funding pretty much anywhere and need one... new flexible rules from NDIA means you can pay out of Core Supports if you need to. Don’t fall in a hole alone.... let Journey Care and others assist you. Don’t be lonely on your journey. # JourneyCare #journeycaresupportcoordinationwith #journeycaresupportcoordinationwithheart #journeycare #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationadelaide #ndissupportcoordination #ndis #childdevelopment #disability #globaldevelopmentaldelay #familygoals #childrengoals #choiceandcontrol #navigatingthendis #ndisgoals #ndisplanrenewal #ndisfirstplan

03.01.2022 Happy Fathers Day to all the amazing dads out there! Being a father is hard work.... or rather.... being a good father is hard work! Trying to strike a balance between all the things you value.... quality time with kids and family whilst generating an income to give them the best or put food on the table... not to mention the mundane day to day jobs that always need doing. Striking a balance can be tough...... then you add in an extra layer of being a Special dad.... and ...trying to get it right for each of your kids and their different needs. Fathers Day can be confronting for all kinds of reasons. You may not be able to do the typical things your mates are doing because one of your tribe wouldn’t cope. Here’s sending you some extra kudos today for giving it your all. We salute you special dads... it isn’t easy..... but man the highs are amazing when they come aren’t they? #specialneedsdads #fathersdad #fathersday2020 See more

We are super excited and thanks to @websiteadelaide we have a beautiful fresh website for you to see if we can assist you. #supportlocal #webadelaide #newwebsite #pleasevisitandlookaround #disabilityjourney #disabilitysector #supportcoordination #supportcoordinationadelaide #supportcoordinationadelaidehills #supportcoordinationwith

02.01.2022 We can become fixated on the end goal, but if there’s one thing that we’ve learnt, it’s to go with the process and look at what the needs are NOW (with a sneaky eye to the future). Sometimes we need support on our journey; that can be family, friends or professionals. Make sure you surround yourself with the right people on your journey.....

02.01.2022 The great news is that the NDIS are working towards using funded supports much more flexibly. Therefore you can now use Core Supports to engage a Support Coordinator even if it is not written in the plan. Previously it was a stated support. So check your plan... if it’s already funded, great! If it’s not and you need one and you have a healthy core budget... use that! You can also use the Capacity Building bucket. At Journey Care we provide service to private paying clients..., and NDIS clients who are are self or plan managed. If all this terminology is making your head spin then email us for clarification. No question is a silly one!

01.01.2022 We are focussed on the whole family here at Journey Care, especially the siblings of our special people. This activity may be great for your sensory seekers who are working on some gross motor goals OR it may be a fabulous day out for your neurotypical child as a special treat for just them. https://www.sabasecamp.com.au/
