Welcome to L.I.F.E Skills

Life skills, to a great many people have various connotations. It may be that life skills are of a physical nature where mere exercising and a properly prescribed diet is what are required to meet your client’s objectives. Everyday life skills for the vast minority take on an entirely new meaning. The process of each movement and thought can be exhausting and somewhat overwhelming, not only for the individual requiring the much needed skill, but to the family members or care givers, assisting loved ones, their children and spouse, or just a close friend. Energy, patience and a full heart are key attributes and will undoubtedly reward both yourself and the person you are caring for, paving a road for possible lifelong relationships.

L.I.F.E Skills curriculum will use a range of teaching strategies and visual aids to support children and adults, including seniors, at their current level of functioning to improve daily living. It is important to note that the facilitator should be made aware of behavioral patterns of the individual they are responsible for. Our Information Survey allows us to properly highlight areas of special routines, medications, allergies and vital likes and dislikes etc. This will eventually allow the Facilitator to bond more personally and gain the confidence of the child or adult in their care.

Communicating with the family enables the L.I.F.E. Skills Facilitator to acquire information surrounding the expectations by instilling confidence that the needs of the child or adult maintain the quality of life and improving on long term abilities to function at the best of their capability, providing the suitable skills to obtain the necessary results.

Compatibility between client, Facilitator, Family and Therapists are essential in optimizing the learning potential for the person utilizing the skills, and the health and well being of the entire family. It can be a magical triangle when properly united!
