High Intensive Care Needs

High Intensive Care Needs (HICN) refer to the specific requirements of individuals who have complex, severe, and often multiple disabilities, resulting in a high level of dependency on others for their daily living activities. Individuals with high intensive care needs typically require extensive and specialised support, often involving medical, personal care, behavioural, and emotional assistance. Individuals with HICN often have significant medical needs that require constant monitoring and specialised medical care by our highly trained nursing staff. Our extremely professional staff provide assistance with personal care tasks such as bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Individuals may require round-the-clock support with these activities.

Support for individuals with High Intensive Care Needs involves a multidisciplinary approach, often involving healthcare professionals, therapists, social workers, and caregivers. Tailored and comprehensive care plans are crucial to ensuring the safety, comfort, and quality of life for individuals with these complex and intensive support requirements.
