Community and Social Support
Building Stronger Communities Together: SA Supportive DCare Caring for You!

Transportation
There is support available, including assistance with using public transport such as trains, trams, buses, and taxis. If you or someone you care for needs assistance getting around due to challenging situations you may have encountered, our staff are trained to call the preferred access taxi and arrange suitable transport for you with a reliable driver, or support you appropriately regarding public bus and train schedules so that you can attend all your appointments on time. Alternatively, if you are able to use the regular standard sedan-style taxi service, our staff will be able to arrange this for you and accompany you on the journey. They can also transport you in their own vehicle. You can rest assured that all staff vehicles are travel-safe and inspected by a professional body before being approved for client transport.
Celebration
Do you find it challenging to set up your Christmas tree at home or need assistance decorating for a birthday celebration? Perhaps you’re interested in attending Carols by Candlelight this year but aren’t sure how to arrange it. SA Supportive DCare is here to assist you in commemorating your religious and cultural holidays and events. We respect and embrace all cultural and religious beliefs, and having a disability will not exclude you. The next time you wish to participate in a cultural or religious activity, reach out to one of our culturally diverse support team members who can help you be a part of all your cultural and religious occasions and celebrations.


Weekend
We understand the significance of attending your church on Sundays or your temple/place of worship during specific times and celebrations. We are here to support you in upholding your religious beliefs with your friends and family. We will assist you in evaluating and selecting an appropriate outfit based on the weather or the nature of the celebration you will be attending. Simply inform us of your plans for the day, and we will assign the right person to accompany you, someone who is trained to be culturally sensitive and aware.
Meeting & Appointments
If you need assistance or support for attending GP, specialist, or allied health appointments on time, SA Supportive DCare is here to assist you. We will accompany you and ensure you have all the necessary paperwork for your appointment. Our team can also communicate with healthcare professionals on your behalf if needed, or simply be there to provide moral support when you require it. If you need assistance with making reservations or purchasing tickets, we are available to help with all your needs, including taking you to buy the tickets you need and ensuring that all required facilities are conveniently located. Planning for events is one of our strengths, and we are dedicated to advocating for the individuals we support, empowering them to set high goals and achieve personal milestones. This is our passion and commitment to you and your family.
