Supports & Accessibility

Support that meets people where they are.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to participate fully. Grassroots is being designed to welcome adults with a range of abilities and support needs, with individualized assistance provided in a respectful, dignified, and person-centred way.

We’ll work with each participant and their support network to understand what helps them feel comfortable, included, and successful throughout their day.

Support designed around the individual.

Personal Care & Daily Support

Respectful assistance with personal care needs, including toileting, changing, and other daily supports as required.

Mobility & Accessibility

Support for individuals who use wheelchairs, walkers, or other mobility devices, with accessibility considered in the program environment and activities.

Communication & Participation

Support for different ways of communicating, with activities adapted to provide meaningful opportunities for choice, participation, and inclusion.

Individualized Support

Support needs look different for every person. Grassroots will work with each participant and their support network to understand their routines, preferences, communication, mobility, and personal care needs.

Depending on individual needs, assistance may include personal care, mealtimes and feeding, mobility, communication, and participation in activities. Supports will be discussed during the intake process so we can understand how to best support each person throughout their day.

Safety, Comfort & Dignity

Creating a safe and welcoming environment is an important part of every day at Grassroots. Individual routines, preferences, health and safety information, and support needs will be reviewed as part of the intake process.

Our goal is for each person to feel comfortable, respected, and supported while having meaningful opportunities to make choices, participate, and enjoy their day.
