Community Care (CommCare)
A go-to Community for Social Connection and Engagement
Beyond the Lodge, we strive to create a visionary and inspiring model of community care by fostering an organic culture of Person-Centred Care (PCC) everywhere. CommCare is dedicated to providing Persons with Dementia (PWDs) with opportunities to unlock their potential and build on their strengths and abilities. Our goal is to support them to live independently within the community for as long as possible.
Join our empowering and inclusive community through our specially designed service streams:
Therapy Through Work (TTW)
Many of us have devoted a significant part of our lives to work, making it an integral part of our identity. For PWDs who continue to find purpose in working, TTW offers them the chance to engage in meaningful work through therapeutic activities, cognitive stimulation, social interaction, and continuous learning at our partner workplaces. By providing these opportunities, TTW empowers them to rediscover purpose and fulfillment in daily life; re-establishing a sense of normalcy.
Benefits of TTW
Depending on the level of support required, we have 2 models available – Semi-Independent and Supported Model.
Our Semi-Independent Model
The first employment model is targeted at PWDs who retain a desire to keep working but are unable to do so due to their health condition. By equipping our partner employers with the necessary resources, processes, and framework, the Semi-Independent Model fosters an inclusive and accessible employment model. This provides PWDs with the initial support required to return to the workforce, allowing them to contribute to society and live a normalized life meaningfully in the community.
Our Supported Model
The next employment model is targeted at PWDs who require more support in the work environment. This is known as Group Support Employment, where they complete the same task, allowing for greater support and monitoring. Here, continuous onsite support is provided. Modifications of activities are based on their abilities, thereby returning independence and empowering them.
