Home, school & community visits
We provide a mobile service that comes to you.
It makes sense to assess and work on functional skills, in environments which are real life settings. Home visits are not only more convenient and comfortable for clients, it gives us a chance to review the home setting and see if there might be any suitable AT. It also enables us to provide hands-on, in-home training for families, carers and support workers.
Guided Growth also provides services in schools and within the community to promote social inclusion and community integration. Our creative, “think-outside-the-box” approach goes beyond conventional therapy and has seen us take clients to the shops, mini-golf, and even adaptive rock-climbing.
