How Our Carers at Leaf Complex Care Helped Hayden Manage Behavioural Challenges with PBS

How do We Support Hayden ?

Hayden is an 11-year-old boy with autism and ADHD. Hayden’s family encountered many challenges in finding care where his needs and requirements are met and where compassion intertwines with expertise. Seeking help from social care proved inadequate in providing tangible support since the school he went to couldn’t meet his needs. Hayden’s parents attended courses to learn strategies to assist the process. Still, physical support for his behaviour was lacking, and things became even more challenging for Hayden, including the whole family.

This profoundly moving case study highlights the importance of the transformative power of the person-centred and comprehensive support Leaf Complex Care provides for Hayden, leading to an inspirational journey of positive progress and impact.

Empowering Jacob's Journey: The Importance of Holistic and Person-Centred Care

How do We Support Jacob ?

Jacob is a young boy who has been diagnosed with a brain abnormality which is associated with a learning disability and behavioural difficulty. Initially, he would get a couple of hours of respite care during the week, enabling his mother to study and change her career path. But the care and support weren’t proper, which led to many challenging times in Jacob’s and his family’s lives. As a dedicated provider of continuous and consistent care, Leaf Complex Care stepped in to address Jacob’s specific needs, aiming to create an environment where he feels safe and understood.

The journey of our client James that lives with Autism, Sotos Syndrome and Epilepsy

How do We Support James?

We’ve built a consistent, skilled, and close-knit support team around James, so we’re able to recognise his triggers, act accordingly and stabilise his behaviour.

For example, James can find verbal communication difficult or confusing, so we used symbols and created social stories to communicate with him. We’ve helped with his comfort eating by introducing daily pots of snacks (labelled with the days of the week). Also, we’ve reduced James’ anti-psychotic medication by introducing non-drug therapies and practical support, so he is less likely to need as much medicine.
