We believe care should go beyond routine and clinical support - it should feel like home.

One of our participants is making great progress with her mobility.

When she first moved into one of our SIL homes, she travelled in a wheelchair accessible van. With time and the help of her physiotherapist, she now uses a standard manual wheelchair and travels in a small car, sitting up front beside her team member and enjoying the view along the way.

Her next goal is to get around using a four wheeled walker, and our team is working alongside her and her physiotherapist to help her get there. It has been lovely for our team to watch her progress so far, and we cannot wait to see her take this next step.

We are always happy to discuss our range of support services. Get in touch with our team today:

One of our participants recently travelled to Daly River to attend a funeral.

She wanted to be there to pay her respects, so our team members made the drive down with her. Our thoughts are with her and the Daly River community.

One of our participants spent a Saturday morning at Durack Community Hall for Dementia Awareness Month, hosted by Dementia Alliance Palmerston.

The morning was about raising awareness and reducing stigma around dementia in the Palmerston community. She settled in at the craft tables with one of our team members, threaded a string of bright beads, and stopped for a cuppa and a sandwich with the other guests.

Thank you to Dementia Alliance Palmerston for having us.

Our participants have been painting canvases and seashells, getting their nails done with our team members, cooking up dinner and watering the garden at our SIL homes lately.

Painting, cooking, gardening and self care are a regular part of the week in our homes, helping participants keep up their own routines, build confidence in the kitchen and take pride in the place they live.

One of our participants recently became a grandmother to a new baby.

She wanted to be there to welcome the baby into the family, so one of our team members went up to the hospital with her to meet her grandchild. She spent the visit with the baby tucked into her arms, and we are so glad we got to go with her and share the day.

We are always happy to have an open conversation about the right support:

Our younger participants have been out and about this month, heading to the barber for fresh haircuts, riding bikes around the park after school and spending an afternoon at the museum.

Back at home the pace slows down, with a book or a game on the couch, and a session on the library computers for the days that need a change of scene. The team plans weeks like this around what each young person is working on, so getting ready in the morning, keeping active and learning new things all get their turn.

Supporting daily living skills, physical health and time together at home is a core part of how we plan each week for our younger participants, and it always follows what each of them enjoys.

One of our participants recently flew home to Country to spend time with her family, catching up with her grandchildren and the people she has known her whole life.

An ACRS team member travelled with her so her daily support carried on for the whole visit, from the flight out to the flight home.

Staying connected to Country, family, and community is part of how we plan support at ACRS, because that connection sits behind a participant's wellbeing, routine, and sense of belonging in a way that support inside the home cannot cover on its own.

Our participant recently joined the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair, moving through the exhibition halls and taking in works from artists and art centres across the Territory.

For participants with strong connections to culture and Country, the Fair brings together art, community, and belonging in one place. Attending supports community access and social participation, planned around each participant's own cultural ties and interests.

Some of our younger participants have been with ACRS for a few years now, and lately their weeks have been full of the practical skills that independence is built on.

Recent outings have taken them to the supermarket, choosing their own groceries, working to a budget, and paying with a bank card at the checkout, along with trips to the library and the museum to browse the shelves and explore the exhibits.

These are participants we have known for years, and watching them manage a shop from choosing items to paying at the checkout shows how far they have come. Building capacity in daily living skills and community access is a core part of how we plan support, with each outing shaped around what each participant is ready to try next.

Familiar faces matter in a SIL home. Participants settle into their day more easily when the team member helping them is one they already know well.

We build our rosters around that. The same team members work with the same participants week to week, learning how each person likes their morning to run, how they communicate on a difficult day, and what a good week looks like for them. Nobody is starting from scratch, so support stays calm and steady.

Routine and predictability are recognised support needs for many participants, and consistent rostering is how we meet them across our Darwin SIL homes.
