THE GOOD
IN EVERYDAY
IN EVERYDAY
Choice in the everyday
A good day is
your kind of day.
Maybe it is making breakfast, choosing what comes next, spending time with a friend, or enjoying a familiar routine. Everyday moments can be a meaningful part of living with greater independence.
Support works best when it respects what the person enjoys, what they want to learn, and how they choose to spend their time.
Questions families often askFor people and families
A few things to
think about.
Starting a conversation can make the next step clearer. Here are some useful places to begin.
How do we explore whether a home is a good fit?
Talk about the person’s goals, routines, preferences, and the support they are looking for. Ask how those details are considered when exploring a potential home.
How can families and trusted supporters be involved?
Ask how the person wants family or other trusted supporters to participate, and how their own decisions and privacy will be respected.
What should we ask about the support available?
Ask about daily routines, staffing and support arrangements, health coordination, community participation, and how the person’s goals guide their support.
