Clients
ICLA supports clients who experience a variety of psychiatric conditions including schizophrenia, personality disorders, mood disorders, depression, acquired brain injury and co morbid developmental delay.
Flexible programs are tailored to assist individual clients in their day to day living and involvement in the community and clients are encouraged to participate in the running of their home and to pursue individual interests, sports and hobbies.
All clients are provided with the level of support they require and a 'needs assessment' determines whether clients are assigned High, Medium or Low support. Where these needs are determined as 'High', twenty four hour supervision is provided. This provides a safe and secure environment where clients can access staff at any time.
