The Power of Consistency
In the disability sector, we often talk about "capacity building." Last night, we saw exactly what that looks like in practice.
During an unexpected electrical issue at one of our properties, the loud environment of a smoke alarm activation provided a true test of self-regulation for one of our residents. While this individual has historically struggled with sensory overload and dysregulation, his response last night was a testament to his growth.
The Highlights:
Zero Escalation: Remained calm despite the high-stress environment.
Community Engagement: Provided support and cooperation to the responding fire crew.
Family Peace of Mind: His family was thrilled to hear how well he handled a situation that would have previously been a major crisis.
This milestone is the fruit of four years of trust-building and consistent support from the Ruhil Care team. It reminds us that progress isn't always linear, but with time and dedication, incredible transformations are possible.
