Title: Provide active support Post by: Rachel.Grind on October 03, 2012, 03:45:39 am Explain how the key characteristics of active support differ from the hotel model
Title: Re: Provide active support Post by: maind on October 04, 2012, 03:54:38 pm Hi Rachel - the hotel model is really a description of care which is dis-abling - taking over and doing everything for the person rather than promoting independence and being collaborative (working in partnership with the individual to establish the best ways of supporting that person). With the hotel model, a person can become institutionalised as they lose the ability to make decisions for themselves. Active support encourages a person to take their lives into their own hands as far as possible and live it fully and to their full potential.
