New Group Home for Individuals with Disabilities Opens in Fukui City

Social Inclusion has made a significant step forward in promoting independent living for people with severe disabilities by launching the "Social Inclusion Home Fukui Higashimorita" on January 1st in Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture. This new group home allows residents, who require daily living support, to live safely and autonomously with the necessary assistance.

The Need for Group Homes in Fukui

In Fukui Prefecture, there are fewer daytime service support type group homes, which often forces families to seek facilities in neighboring Toyama Prefecture. The "Social Inclusion Home Fukui Higashimorita" is now the second facility of its kind in Fukui, greatly expanding the options available for individuals with severe disabilities to live in the community. This initiative aims to enhance the quality of life for these individuals by creating more opportunities for them to live independently.

The operational company, Social Inclusion Inc., headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, is dedicated to creating a society where there are "zero" barriers for individuals with disabilities seeking housing, adhering to its vision while expanding these essential residences across the nation.

Group Homes: A Supportive Infrastructure for Living

While there are diverse options for welfare support and employment services for people with disabilities, the choice of "housing" remains limited. Many individuals face challenges, such as difficulty living alone due to the need for support and anxieties regarding family care after parents pass away. Additionally, the disparity in available support systems and acceptance frameworks can affect the ease of living for individuals in different regions. Therefore, groups homes serve as a foundation supporting the community living of individuals facing such housing dilemmas.

By receiving essential assistance, individuals can achieve an independent lifestyle and continue living in their familiar surroundings. Social Inclusion Inc. is committed to addressing the social issue of housing shortages for those with severe disabilities through the operation of group homes.

What is the Social Inclusion Home Fukui Higashimorita?

1. Daytime Service Support Type Group Home: This form of group home is designed for individuals with severe disabilities who require ongoing support during daytime hours. The facility operates 24/7, providing the necessary day-to-day assistance. It includes additional short-term accommodation options for non-residents during family outings, breaks, or emergencies.

2. Customized Support Based on Individual Needs: The home provides tailored support for residents to ensure they lead independent lives. Comprehensive assistance includes daily living support such as bathing and personal hygiene, with meal options tailored to residents’ nutritional needs. Staff members will accompany residents to medical appointments and assist with grocery shopping. A variety of recreational activities customized to each individual will also enhance their daily experience. Before moving in, qualified professionals develop an individualized support plan, ensuring that each resident’s needs and preferences are prioritized.

3. Robust Operational Structure for a Safe Living Environment: The home adheres to legally mandated operational standards regarding staffing and facility amenities. This entails continuous monitoring and assistance to support residents who require care around the clock. The facilities are designed with accessibility in mind, ensuring individuals with disabilities can move freely. For added security, the home includes surveillance cameras and fire prevention systems.

With a commitment to providing comprehensive support beyond regulatory requirements, Social Inclusion Home Fukui Higashimorita aims to ensure that its residents feel secure and prioritized.
