About DADHC - Community Support Team - Orange

The community support team is a multi disciplinary team generally comprised of professionals who provide a range of support services to clients, families and carers. Support services include both direct intervention and the planning and co-ordination of services. Services include assessment, case planning and management, counselling, therapy, family support, early intervention and behaviour management. Priority is given to those with complex multiple needs, people with complex challenging behaviour, people who are at risk or who are homeless, people whose carer requires assistance to develop skills and interventions to assist the person with a disability to remain in their home. For children who are under 6 yrs, their eligiblity is determined on the basis of their developmental delay. Once the child turns 6, a reassessment to determine an intellectual disability will need to be done to allow client to stay on the program.
