Support services at the home are tailored to address various needs, such as substance use management or assistance with daily life tasks. Although you may require support, you have the capacity for independent living with the aid of support services. 

An instructor is available at the support home throughout the week from Monday to Friday. If necessary, we also collaborate with home care services in the area to ensure comprehensive support. 

The support home consists of 28 individual resident rooms, organised into four-person cellular units. Each unit features a shared kitchen, toilet and bathroom facilities. Additionally, residents have access to a sauna and a laundry room within the support home premises.
