Participant Directed HPC

---

This service is designed to support individuals with their day-to-day needs by offering hands-on assistance with a wide range of essential activities that promote independence and overall well-being. It is tailored to meet each person’s unique preferences, abilities, and goals, with the goal of helping them live as fully and independently as possible in their own home and community.

One of the key areas of support includes help with personal care tasks such as getting dressed, grooming, bathing, and other hygiene-related needs. These supports are provided with respect and dignity, ensuring that individuals feel comfortable, confident, and capable in their daily routines.

The service also includes assistance with meal preparation and other food-related tasks. This may involve helping individuals plan meals, shop for groceries, prepare ingredients, cook, and clean up afterward. Through this support, individuals can enjoy healthy, balanced meals while also building valuable life skills.

In addition to in-home support, this service extends into the community. Staff assist individuals with safely accessing and navigating their neighborhoods and local areas. This may include help with arranging transportation, going to medical appointments, attending social or recreational events, shopping for personal needs, or participating in community programs and activities. These experiences not only improve quality of life but also help individuals build confidence, social connections, and a sense of belonging.

Overall, this service provides a comprehensive support system that empowers individuals to live more independently, engage with their communities, and thrive in everyday life. It is not just about completing tasks—it’s about building skills, fostering inclusion, and supporting each person’s right to live a fulfilling, self-directed life.
