Not-for-profit disability services provider, Windgap Foundation, has opened its seventh supported accommodation home.
The brand new, purpose-built home in Pagewood, in Sydney鈥檚 Eastern Suburbs, will house six residents, with wheelchair accessibility to all areas of the house and disability friendly bathrooms and kitchen. The home will be staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by Windgap Foundation鈥檚 highly trained, compassionate carers.

The aim of Windgap鈥檚 supported accommodation services is to be as person-centric as possible.

Windgap Foundation CEO, Serhat Oguz said, 鈥淭he aim of Windgap鈥檚 supported accommodation services is to be as person-centric as possible. We are committed to delivering a high quality of service and enhancing the lives of our clients. This all starts with listening intently, not dictating the dialogue, and responding appropriately to the needs, wants and aspirations outlined by the individual.鈥
鈥淲indgap Foundation has been providing supportive residential services to people with intellectual disability for over 30 years, with many of our residents having been with us since the day we opened. The new residence in Pagewood is a great, purpose-built space that will help us in providing a quality service to our clients, with its location ensuring plenty of community interaction.鈥
鈥淲e believe an individual鈥檚 needs and aspirations should be at the centre of the care we deliver. They are the driver and decision maker. In our Pagewood home, we have residents that range from high staff support to high levels of independence. We are committed to making Windgap truly reflect the choices and needs of each individual,鈥 added Mr Oguz.
Windgap Foundation supports residents in many ways, including assisting with travel and participation in activities, housework, washing, cooking, shopping and maintaining relationships with family.
During an average week a resident can be assisted to participate in a number of programs offered by Windgap Foundation, either individually or as part as a group. These programs include music programs with local community groups, exercise programs, volunteering and art classes.
Windgap Foundation operates its residences within the Botany, Randwick and City of Sydney council areas, supporting 34 residents.
