PERSONAL WELLBEING
MAY IS A GREAT REMINDER OF THE IMPORTANCE OF PRIORITISING WELLBEING IN THE WORKPLACE
WORKING IN DISABILITY SUPPORT IS INCREDIBLY REWARDING, BUT IT CAN ALSO BE PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY DEMANDING PROVIDING QUALITY CARE TO PARTICIPANTS REQUIRES PATIENCE, ENERGY, AND RESILIENCE, WHICH IS WHY LOOKING AFTER YOUR OWN WELLBEING IS SO IMPORTANT
SIMPLE STEPS SUCH AS TAKING REGULAR BREAKS, MAINTAINING HEALTHY WORK-LIFE BOUNDARIES, GETTING ENOUGH REST, AND REACHING OUT FOR SUPPORT WHEN NEEDED CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.
AT BIGDOG WE VALUE THE DEDICATION OF OUR SUPPORT STAFF AND ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO TAKE TIME TO CHECK IN WITH THEMSELVES AND PRIORITISE THEIR WELLBEING.
SUPPORTING OTHERS STARTS WITH SUPPORTING OURSELVES BY LOOKING AFTER OUR OWN HEALTH AND WELLBEING, WE CAN CONTINUE DELIVERING THE HIGH-QUALITY CARE OUR PARTICIPANTS DESERVE

WHAT’S HAPPENING ACROSS OUR SIL HOMES
THERE’S BEEN SOME FANTASTIC PROGRESS ACROSS OUR SIL HOMES! YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY NOTICED SOME CONSTRUCTION UNDERWAY WE’RE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF CONVERTING SOME OF OUR GARAGES INTO AIRCONDITIONED STAFF ROOMS THIS IS A REALLY EXCITING STEP FORWARD, AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO SHARING MORE UPDATES AS THINGS PROGRESS
ANOTHER BIG WIN THIS MONTH HAS BEEN THE NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENTS IN OUR HOMES. WALKING INTO SIL HOUSES AND SEEING CLEANING CONSISTENTLY COMPLETED AND DOCUMENTATION BEING SENT THROUGH TO THE
COMMUNITY EVENTS!!
TOOWOOMBA
A QUICK REMINDER – NDIS DOCUMENTATION & PRACTICE STANDARDS
WITH NEW NDIS REFORMS AND REGULATORY CHANGES BEING INTRODUCED, THE IMPORTANCE OF CLEAR, ACCURATE, AND CONSISTENT DOCUMENTATION HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER OUR PARTICIPANTS ARE AT A CRITICAL STAGE WHERE EVIDENCE-BASED REPORTING DIRECTLY IMPACTS THEIR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN APPROPRIATE FUNDING AND SUPPORTS EVERY INTERACTION, OBSERVATION, AND SUPPORT PROVIDED CONTRIBUTES TO THE BIGGER PICTURE OF DEMONSTRATING NEED, PROGRESS, AND OUTCOMES
SUPPORT WORKERS PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN THIS PROCESS YOUR DAILY NOTES SHOULD: CLEARLY OUTLINE WHAT SUPPORTS WERE PROVIDED DEMONSTRATE WHY THOSE SUPPORTS ARE REQUIRED SHOW HOW THE SUPPORT LINKS BACK TO PARTICIPANT GOALS AND OUTCOMES, CAPTURE ANY CHANGES IN BEHAVIOUR, NEEDS, OR RISKS IDENTIFIED AND REPORT MAINTENANCE OR ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES PROMPTLY. THIS LEVEL OF DETAIL IS NO LONGER OPTIONAL IT IS ESSENTIAL IN ENSURING PARTICIPANTS RECEIVE THE RIGHT LEVEL OF FUNDING AND ONGOING SUPPORT UNDER THE EVOLVING NDIS FRAMEWORK THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS MADE IT CLEAR THAT THE SCHEME IS BEING RESET TO ITS ORIGINAL PURPOSE AS STATED BY MINISTER MARK BUTLER: “THE GOVERNMENT IS TAKING STEPS TO RESTORE THE NDIS TO ITS ORIGINAL INTENT OF SUPPORTING PEOPLE WITH PERMANENT AND SIGNIFICANT DISABILITY ” HE FURTHER EMPHASISED THAT THESE REFORMS ARE ABOUT PROTECTING THE SCHEME LONG-TERM: “THESE REFORMS ARE ABOUT SAVING THE NDIS ITSELF SO THAT IT SERVES AUSTRALIANS IT WAS CREATED TO HELP”
WHAT THIS MEANS IN PRACTICE IS: THERE WILL BE GREATER SCRUTINY ON SUPPORTS AND FUNDING A STRONGER FOCUS ON EVIDENCE, OUTCOMES, AND ACCOUNTABILITY/ INCREASED REGULATION AROUND PROVIDER QUALITY AND COMPLIANCE A SHIFT BACK TO SUPPORTING THOSE WITH PERMANENT AND SIGNIFICANT NEEDS, BECAUSE OF THIS, IT IS CRITICAL THAT ALL STAFF: FOLLOW ALL BUSINESS PROCESSES, POLICIES, AND PROCEDURES MAINTAIN PROFESSIONAL, OBJECTIVE, AND DETAILED DOCUMENTATION, ENSURE ALL SUPPORTS DELIVERED ARE ALIGNED WITH PARTICIPANT PLANS AND GOALS, UPHOLD A HIGH STANDARD OF CARE AND COMPLIANCE AT ALL TIMES BY DOING THIS CONSISTENTLY WE NOT ONLY SUPPORT OUR PARTICIPANTS EFFECTIVELY, BUT WE ALSO PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE SERVICES WE PROVIDE AND ENSURE WE REMAIN COMPLIANT WITHIN A TIGHTENING REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

I'D LIKE TO SAY QUICKLY THAT IT'S BEEN LOVELY RETURNING FROM MY MATERNITY LEAVE MEETING ALL THE NEW FACES, AND CATCHING UP WITH THE FAMILIAR ONES. YOU HAVE ALL WELCOMED ME BACK WITH OPEN ARMS, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING ALONGSIDE EVERYONE AGAIN
LET'S TAKE SOME TIME TO REVIEW SOME CASUAL 'NEED TO KNOWS' REGARDING ROSTERS AND PHONE CALLS:
AS MENTIONED IN TRAINING WITH BILLY, WHEN SUBMITTING A LEAVE REQUEST, PLEASE ENSURE YOU'RE ALLOWING A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF TIME FOR STAFF (BOTH ADMIN AND SW'S) TO BE NOTIFIED AND FOR YOUR SHIFTS TO BE COVERED IF YOU REQUIRE COVERAGE FOR ANY SHIFTS THE FOLLOWING DAY, YOU MUST BE CALLING THE OFFICE TO ENSURE THE APPROPRIATE PERSON IS INFORMED; TEXTING IS UNACCEPTABLE
PLEASE NOTE THAT OFFICE HOURS ARE 7 AM TO 4 PM OUTSIDE OF THESE HOURS, ENSURE YOU CALL ONCALL WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME (NO, NOT 3AM) THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS ADOPTED THIS SINCE TRAINING, WE HAVE SEEN SOME GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT
A GENTLE REMINDER THAT ONCALL IS FOR EMERGENCIES ONLY CALLING ONCALL IS NECESSARY TO FILL A SHIFT OUTSIDE OF OFFICE HOURS, HOWEVER, DIFFERENT PROCEDURES ARE IN PLACE FOR OTHER INSTANCES IF SOMEONE SENDS YOU HOME EARLY, THIS ONLY REQUIRES A HIGH PRIORITY SHIFT NOTE
DID A PARTICIPANT MISS MEDICATION? CALL 13HEALTH AND SUBMIT AN INCIDENT REPORT
PLEASE ENSURE YOU ARE REFERRING TO THE RESOURCES YOU HAVE, SUCH AS THE "WHEN TO CALL ONCALL" PROCEDURES LOCATED IN EACH BIGDOG SIL HOUSE.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE A COPY OF THESE PROCEDURES, KINDLY ASK RECEPTION TO PRINT THESE FOR YOU.
YOU CAN REACH US ANYTIME AT 0447 452 995 OR T ROSTERING@BIGDOG AU

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT.
FUN FACTS
IT’S NOW AN OFFICIAL CELEBRATION DAY MAY 4TH IS RECOGNISED WORLDWIDE AS STAR WARS DAY, WITH EVENTS, DRESS-UPS, AND SPECIAL RELEASES HAPPENING EVERY YEAR
THE FIRST STAR WARS FILM HAD A DIFFERENT NAME - THE ORIGINAL MOVIE WAS LATER RENAMED STAR WARS: EPISODE IV – A NEW HOPE AFTER THE REST OF THE SAGA WAS DEVELOPED.
LIGHTSABERS WERE ORIGINALLY GOING TO BE MUCH HEAVIER - EARLY CONCEPTS IMAGINED THEM LIKE HEAVY, PHYSICAL WEAPONS THAT REQUIRED POWER PACKS NOT THE SLEEK, GLOWING BLADES WE KNOW TODAY
YODA WAS ALMOST PLAYED BY A MONKEY BEFORE THE ICONIC PUPPET WAS CREATED, THERE WERE PLANS TO USE A TRAINED MONKEY IN A COSTUME THANKFULLY, THEY WENT WITH THE LEGENDARY PUPPET DESIGN INSTEAD
DARTH VADER NEVER ACTUALLY SAYS “LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER” THE REAL LINE FROM STAR WARS: EPISODE V – THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK IS: �� “NO, I AM YOUR FATHER ”
STAR WARS IS ONE OF THE HIGHESTGROSSING FRANCHISES EVER - THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE SPANS MOVIES, TV SHOWS, BOOKS, GAMES, AND MERCHANDISE WORTH BILLIONS
OUR RECEPTION TEAM IS HERE TO GREET YOU WITH A SMILE, ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS, AND MAKE YOUR VISIT A GREAT ONE!

MAKE SURE TO SAY HELLO TO SOPHIE IF YOU SEE HER AROUND THE CENTRE!
OUR RECENT FOSSIL FUELERS CAR SHOW, HELD ON APRIL 16TH, WAS AN INCREDIBLE SUCCESS AND A TRUE CELEBRATION OF COMMUNITY SPIRIT WITH AN AMAZING TURNOUT OF OVER 150 ATTENDEES AND MORE THAN 50 CLASSIC CARS ON DISPLAY, THE DAY WAS FILLED WITH ENERGY, CONNECTION, AND PLENTY OF ADMIRATION FOR SOME TRULY STUNNING VEHICLES IT WAS INSPIRING TO SEE SO MANY PEOPLE COME TOGETHER IN SUPPORT OF SUCH A MEANINGFUL CAUSE

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SHARING MORE UPDATES AS FUELERS FIT COMES TO LIFE!
MAY THE 4TH IS A GREAT REMINDER THAT EVEN SMALL, CONSISTENT ACTIONS CAN BUILD POWERFUL HABITS SOMETHING WE FOCUS ON EVERY DAY IN OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
IN OT, OUR GOAL IS TO SUPPORT PARTICIPANTS TO BUILD INDEPENDENCE, CONFIDENCE, AND MEANINGFUL ROUTINES MUCH LIKE TRAINING A JEDI, PROGRESS DOESN’T HAPPEN OVERNIGHT IT COMES FROM REPETITION, STRUCTURE, AND THE RIGHT SUPPORTS IN PLACE HERE ARE A FEW PRACTICAL OT STRATEGIES WE ENCOURAGE SUPPORT WORKERS TO INCORPORATE INTO DAILY SUPPORTS:
BREAK TASKS DOWN (CHUNKING)
LARGE TASKS CAN FEEL OVERWHELMING. BREAKING THEM INTO SMALLER, MANAGEABLE STEPS HELPS PARTICIPANTS STAY ENGAGED AND SUCCESSFUL. THINK: INSTEAD OF “CLEAN THE HOUSE,” START WITH “CLEAR THE TABLE” → “WIPE THE SURFACE” → “PUT ITEMS AWAY”
USE VISUAL SUPPORTS
VISUAL SCHEDULES, CHECKLISTS, OR STEP-BY-STEP PROMPTS CAN SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE INDEPENDENCE, ESPECIALLY FOR PARTICIPANTS WHO BENEFIT FROM ROUTINE AND PREDICTABILITY
PROMOTE CHOICE AND CONTROL WHERE POSSIBLE, OFFER SIMPLE CHOICES (E G , “WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHOWER NOW OR AFTER LUNCH?”) THIS BUILDS AUTONOMY AND REDUCES RESISTANCE
FOCUS ON ROUTINE BUILDING CONSISTENCY IS KEY SUPPORTING PARTICIPANTS TO FOLLOW A REGULAR DAILY ROUTINE HELPS REDUCE ANXIETY AND IMPROVES OVERALL FUNCTIONING
SUPPORT, DON’T TAKE OVER IT CAN BE TEMPTING TO COMPLETE TASKS FOR PARTICIPANTS, BUT OUR GOAL IS TO BUILD CAPACITY PROVIDE THE LEAST AMOUNT OF SUPPORT NEEDED AND STEP IN ONLY WHEN REQUIRED
SENSORY AWARENESS
BE MINDFUL OF ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS SUCH AS NOISE, LIGHTING, AND CLUTTER SMALL ADJUSTMENTS CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN A PARTICIPANT’S ABILITY TO ENGAGE MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU” ED
A FINAL THOUGHT
WE ARE THRILLED TO INTRODUCE SUZANNE AS OUR REMOTE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST! SUZANNE BRINGS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE IN DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING CLIENT SUPPORT PLANS THAT ADDRESS THE HOLISTIC NEEDS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL SHE HAS DELIVERED WELLBEING PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO HELP CLIENTS ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS, AND HAS EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE SUPPORTING BOTH FIRST RESPONDERS AND A DIVERSE RANGE OF CLIENTS
HER BACKGROUND INCLUDES ASSESSING AND TREATING CLIENTS ACROSS BOTH COMMUNITY AND HOSPITAL SETTINGS, CONSISTENTLY ACHIEVING POSITIVE OUTCOMES. SUZANNE’S CLIENT-CENTRED APPROACH AND COMMITMENT TO QUALITY CARE MAKE HER A VALUABLE ADDITION TO OUR TEAM
WITH SUZANNE JOINING US, SCOTTVALE HEALTH CLUB IS NOW PROUD TO OFFER REMOTE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY REPORTS IF THIS IS SOMETHING YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW MAY BENEFIT FROM, PLEASE DON’T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH WE’D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP
JUST LIKE IN STAR WARS, EVERY INDIVIDUAL HAS THEIR OWN JOURNEY, STRENGTHS, AND CHALLENGES OUR ROLE IS TO GUIDE, SUPPORT, AND EMPOWER NOT TO TAKE OVER THE MISSION. BY EMBEDDING THESE STRATEGIES INTO EVERYDAY SUPPORTS, WE HELP PARTICIPANTS BUILD SKILLS THAT LAST FAR BEYOND A SINGLE SHIFT
THE 4TH BE WITH YOU
THAT’S A WRAP!
THANKS FOR ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL MONTH, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
