High Intensity Daily Personal Activities

High Intensity Daily Personal Activities

High Intensity Daily Personal Activities are specialised personal care tasks that require advanced skills, training, and a thorough understanding of health and safety procedures. These activities are often necessary for individuals with complex medical conditions, disabilities, chronic illnesses, or those recovering from significant injuries or surgeries. Proper support with these activities helps individuals maintain their health, independence, comfort, and quality of life while living safely in their home and community.

At Maya Disability & Community Services, our trained and experienced support professionals provide high-quality assistance with a range of high-intensity personal care activities. We work closely with participants, families, healthcare professionals, and medical specialists to ensure that all support is delivered safely, respectfully, and in accordance with individual care plans.

Complex Bowel Care

Complex bowel care involves supporting individuals who have specific bowel management needs due to disability, injury, neurological conditions, or chronic health issues. This support may include implementing prescribed bowel care routines, monitoring bowel health, and recognising signs of complications that require medical attention.

Our trained support staff follow personalised care plans and established clinical guidelines to ensure bowel management is conducted safely and effectively. We maintain the highest standards of hygiene, privacy, and dignity throughout the process, helping participants feel comfortable and supported.

Effective bowel care can significantly improve an individual's health, comfort, confidence, and overall quality of life. Our goal is to reduce discomfort, prevent complications, and promote wellbeing through consistent and professional care.

Enteral Feeding and Management

Enteral feeding refers to providing nutrition, fluids, and medications through a feeding tube when an individual is unable to eat or swallow safely. This type of support requires specialised knowledge to ensure the participant receives adequate nutrition while minimising health risks.

Our support workers are trained to assist with feeding tube care, preparation and administration of feeds, monitoring for potential complications, and maintaining strict hygiene standards. We work in accordance with healthcare professional recommendations and individual support plans.

By providing safe and reliable enteral feeding support, we help individuals maintain their nutritional health, energy levels, and overall wellbeing while enabling them to continue living comfortably in their preferred environment.

Urinary Catheter Management

Urinary catheter management involves assisting individuals who require a catheter to drain urine due to medical conditions, disabilities, or recovery from surgery. Proper catheter care is essential to reduce the risk of infections, discomfort, and other complications.

Our trained team provides support with catheter maintenance, drainage bag management, monitoring urine output, and observing for any signs of infection or catheter-related issues. We follow strict infection control procedures and clinical guidelines to ensure participant safety.

We understand that catheter care can be a sensitive matter. Our staff provide compassionate and respectful support that promotes dignity, comfort, and confidence while helping participants maintain their daily routines and independence.

Subcutaneous Injection

Subcutaneous injections involve administering medication into the layer of tissue beneath the skin. This method is commonly used for medications that require slow and steady absorption into the body, such as certain treatments for chronic health conditions.

Our qualified support professionals are trained to safely administer prescribed subcutaneous injections according to medical instructions and individual care plans. We follow strict protocols for medication handling, documentation, and infection prevention.

We are committed to ensuring that medication is delivered safely, accurately, and comfortably. Through professional support, we help participants manage their health conditions effectively while reducing anxiety and promoting confidence in their care.

Complex Wound Management

Complex wound management involves caring for wounds that require specialised treatment and ongoing monitoring. These may include surgical wounds, pressure injuries, diabetic ulcers, burns, or wounds that are slow to heal and require professional attention.

Our experienced support staff assist with wound care procedures under clinical guidance, including dressing changes, monitoring healing progress, maintaining cleanliness, and identifying signs of infection or complications. We work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure appropriate treatment plans are followed.

Proper wound management plays a vital role in preventing infection, promoting healing, and improving comfort. Our team is dedicated to delivering attentive and compassionate care that supports recovery and enhances the participant's overall wellbeing.
