Life skills include all those activities that are necessary to live a more fulfiling life. Novel Care Services assists people living with disability in developing the required life skills, from preparing meals to communicating with other people.
Awareness of life skills helps a person live an independent life. For example, money handling is a very important skill that everyone should be aware of. Other examples include management of household bills, and home maintenance.
To live a healthy lifestyle, it is very important to follow a healthy diet plan. We assist people with disability to plan out a healthy weekly menu.
Novel Care Services ensures that individuals with disabilities acquire independence and confidence by training in life skills. Life Skills programs are aimed at enabling people to achieve a quality life, learning basic skills useful in everyday life and social relations, and promoting independence. Each person requires a certain type of support and expects specific results. We adjust to those expectations, providing assistance that helps the disabled to increase their ability to manage daily tasks, be in touch with friends and family, and reintegrate into society. Hence, living a normal life like others!
For people with disabilities, basic life skills can be challenging tasks. Life skills are important and impact our success, but learning and developing basic life skills can be especially difficult for people with disabilities. At some point, disabled people don't get the satisfaction, as they can't accomplish their work on their own.
At Novel Care Services, we aim to develop independence and fully participate in daily activities. Daily living skills for disabled individuals indicate several aspects of competence that assist the disabled in their daily lives and interact effectively with others. These skills are crucial for independent living and can vary from personal care, household management, and financial skills to communication, shopping, feeding, socialising, activities, hobbies, sports, and problem-solving. So, at Novel Care Services, we strive to equip disabled persons with the ability to handle aspects of life independently and respectfully.
