Young people in residential aged care The Young People in Residential Aged Care (YPIRAC) program was a five-year program jointly funded by the State and Australian Governments. The program’s overall objective was to reduce the number of younger people in residential aged care using the following three strategies: • moving people into appropriate supported disability accommodation • diverting people at risk of admission into residential aged care • enhancing specialist disability services to those younger people with disability currently in residential aged care, who did not wish to move out. The program ended in June 2011 however, the Commission remains committed to continuing to improve the lives of these young people. Major achievements 2011–2012 • Architect engaged and project plan developed for new emergency accommodation in Bedford. • Increased flexible community living options by promoting concept planning and implementing a differential cap on community and family living plans. • Evaluation of the Community Living Initiative resulted in redevelopment of some individual plans, increased involvement of disability service organisations and increased support for Local Area Coordinators. • The Community and Family Living Resource Team (CFLRT) was fully staffed including the appointment of a manager, which led to increased capacity to support Local Area Coordinators and disability sector organisations. • Individuals living in supported accommodation experienced stronger involvement in community and sporting groups by participating in a gym program operated by the Central Institute of Technology, the AFL Integrated League, the GymAbility program, Let’s Go Surfing Days and participation in other sporting activities. • A documentary film ‘Findings: the story of the Lost Generation Project’ was screened in Canberra and Northbridge during Disability Awareness Week. The Commission was a project partner. Looking forward: objectives for 2012–2013 In 2012–2013, the Commission will: • review the current service model and accommodation type to align with changing support needs • develop and implement a health and wellbeing framework for individuals • support and fund an anticipated 50 Community Living Plans. 30
2.2.2 Service 2 — Individual support Individual support includes support for people with disability to access positive and constructive day activities, maintain health and develop individual skills and abilities. In brief... 17,790 people used the Individual Support service, an increase of 6.8 per cent from last year. The total cost for this financial year was $174.613 million, averaging $9,815 per person. Key strategies: • People with disability, their families and carers have access to services within the community that assist them in maintaining a good quality of life. • People with disability who have left school but are not able to work are assisted in linking with their community and to develop independence and skills to participate in activities of their choice. • People with disability receive necessary health care and therapeutic support to limit the restrictive effects of their disability, increase independence and maximise skill development.
