• Supporting people with their medication.
• Helping, encouraging, supporting and teaching the people we support to do their housework, including cleaning and laundry.
• Supporting and encouraging people to find opportunities in education, employment and leisure, and enable them to take part in these opportunities.
• Supporting, encouraging and teaching people to maintain personal and intimate care as required, such as dressing themselves, showering/bathing, using the toilet, etc.
