Personal Care

High Intensity Supports

High Intensity Support services are intended for NDIS participants who have severe disabilities or complex care requirements. These participants often need round-the-clock assistance, close supervision, and extensive support in daily living tasks and community engagement. Equinox Care staff, under the direct and indirect supervision of a registered nurse are trained to provide skills services in these areas.

•  High-level physical assistance: Support for participants with mobility limitations, including transfers, positioning, and use of assistive technology.
•  Complex communication support: Aid for those with speech, language, or hearing impairments to improve communication abilities.
•  Behavioural supports: Intervention strategies to manage behaviours of concern and enhance coping skills.
•  Clinical Supports: Specialised care for participants with medical needs, such as wound care, medication management, diabetes management, complex bowel care, enteral feeding and monitoring of chronic conditions.

Our Customised Approach: Services in this category are tailored to meet the unique needs of each participant, taking into consideration their goals, preferences, and living environment. The aim is to maximize independence, improve quality of life, and promote social inclusion.
