We know how important it is for people to stay in their own homes and retain as much independence as possible. Bonney Care Agency makes this a reality even for people with highly complex needs by fostering maximum independence for individuals through progressive ennoblement and promoting choice.
Our delivery approach is based on Enablement and Recovery principles and promoting independence through maximizing people’s abilities, offering opportunity, and encouraging positive engagement, providing community resources and access, and ultimately encouraging people to take control of their own lifestyle choices. Our staff promote, encourage and support people with social and community integration, further education and training, leisure and recreational activities. We manage and support outreach and in reach services to people living in their own homes, irrespective of their disability or sometimes socially challenging behaviors.
Bonney Care Agency works in partnership with a housing company to support people to find their own home.
