Navigating Group Home Closures and Transitions
About
Join us for an important and practical webinar, supporting individuals, families and professionals navigating the impending closure of legacy group homes.With thousands of people now facing uncertainty, this session brings together senior CareChoice leaders to outline clear, viable pathways forward - from understanding contemporary care models to navigating funding, transitions and housing options for people with higher support needs.
Designed to provide clarity, confidence and concrete next steps, this webinar will help attendees feel more informed and supported during a challenging period of change.
We will cover:
- Funding strategies and considerations during urgent or unplanned transitions
- Planning safe, person-centred moves while maintaining continuity of care
