Ten years ago, Quad Care had the idea that we could do in-home support better.
Firstly. It’s listening. Sitting back and being brave enough to hear our clients. Brave enough to say no, brave enough not to have the answers for everyone, every time.
In our experience, nobody wants to need help. Yet, at the same time, we all crave connection and purpose and knowing that someone else gets us.
Better still, that someone else gets the support we need, for the life we didn’t anticipate living.
So, that’s where we step in.
Finding the right fit for your support staff is about being brave enough to let someone you think might not be just right, work with you and your family.
Finding the right fit with disability support staff is knowing when enough is enough, and you’re not getting what you need out of this working relationship.
Finding the right fit is being upfront and respectfully candid about the way you need things done.
No relationship is perfect, and every relationship to some extent has its season.
It’s recognizing that we all, staff, clients and family come with baggage, agendas, hopes and dreams, whether we like to or not.
It’s better communication and knowing you didn’t always get it right.
Finding the right in your support staff is about trial and error communication, and knowing when to start fresh and that life goes on regardless of whether it works out or not!
