How Families Can Prevent Nursing Home Abuse Using NDIS Fletcher Services

Many senior citizens experience neglect and even abuse in assisted living or care facilities. There are ways to make sure that your seniors are safe and treated well.

RAWR Support Services – Toowoomba is here to help in reaching NDIS services, which include individualised support as well as protecting against abuse and promoting independence.

  1. Maintaining Elder Safety with NDIS Services

The funds from NDIS Fletcher allow the elderly to stay with their family, thus shielding them from the risks associated with overcrowded centres. The choice of staying at home brings comfort, and along with that, they get to enjoy the freedom. Families have the freedom to select the service that matches the needs of the loved one.

NDIS Fletcher provides families with access to professionally screened support workers. These workers have trained care, ensuring that only the best people are provided for service. There is little to no possibility for abuse or neglect.

Other ways NDIS protects seniors include:

  • In-Home Care: The inclusion of staff for personal care, meal preparation, and domestic chores within a secure home environment.

  • Individualised Living Options (ILO): Services that are tailored to one's lifestyle.

  • Behaviour Support Plans: Professionals help to control challenging behaviour in a safe and effective manner.

  • Home Modifications: Grab bars and other safety devices are set up to avert accidents.

These services focus on safety, confidence, and independence.

  1. Signs of Abuse and How to Act

Families should look for injuries, behavioural changes, and any unexpected scenarios. Immediate action must be taken if any of these signs are observed.

  • Call the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.

  • Call the National Disability Abuse and Neglect Hotline for counselling.

  • Request an unannounced review of your care plan if you have doubts about the safety of your family member's current support arrangement.

Such measures ensure that your elder is under protective and responsive care.
