Personal Support Services

Personal Supports are individualized supports, delivered in a personalized manner to support independence in one’s own home and community in which the person wishes to be involved, based on their personal resources.

Services are typically provided early mornings, evenings and/or weekends, with flexible schedules based upon a person’s needs, when no other supports are available.
