LIVING ENVIRONMENT
Group homes
At the moment there are 65 residents in the different group homes.
There are five group homes for 10-15 residents, and one group home for 4 residents. There are also seven small flats. Each group home has its own house mother who is responsible for the caring of residents.
Functionning of Group Homes
- Care is given using visual communication and Sign Language through the group home concept, with empathy and skilful stay-in house parents.
- Residential care facilities meet the necessary standards and requirements for persons with disability.
- Residential care is given in a cost-effective manner, with healthy management principals as an integral part of Lewensruimte for the Deaf.
- Active participation of residents in the therapeutic community
The model of a therapeutic community, with a Christian character, where residents are actively part of decision-making, are followed.
This include:
- a positive appreciation and promotion of human dignity,
- interaction with the community,
- a holistic bio-psycho social approach,
- appropriate evaluation-, care, therapeutic- and training-/ development programme with the focus on maximum independent functioning.
