A Personal Approach to Support
Looking after a family member with severe intellectual disability inspired me to start Magnolia Helping Hands - a disability support service that helps others in similar situations live out their lives the best way possible. See them enjoy life and spread their wings just like the magnolia tree spreads its branches.
My team of support workers are wonderful. Besides their professional qualifications, they are kind, caring and honest. They do their support work exuding warmth and smiles - I believe this is a born and not taught gift. One simply can't teach that!
Magnolia is unique because it is often referred to as a boutique style service provider. This means that clients have access to me personally inside and outside working hours. I have connection with each of my clients, I know their needs and am very familiar with support schedules. I have the ability and willingness to address their needs effectively and immediately.
"Last year, Magnolia assisted a client to find a job. She has been working since August and is loving it. This job provides her with financial and social independence."
We are currently helping another client secure long-term employment and manage all areas of their household.
