Who we support

Everyone around the person, working as one

The individual at the heart. An ecosystem of support around them.

The ecosystem of support

The person at the centre. Their supports all around.

Family, friends and community

The people who know the person best.

The employer and the team at work

Managers, buddies and colleagues on every shift.

Disability and employment support services

Job coaches and supported employment services.

Government and public supports

The Department of Social Protection, Intreo and the HSE.

The person at the centre, surrounded by four circles of support: family and friends, the employer and work team, support services, and government supports. AssistiV connects them. The person their goals, their choices Family & friends Employer & work team Support services Government supports
At the heart: the person

Talented, capable and ready to work

  • Choice. The work they want.
  • Control. Their team, their data.
  • Dignity. Discreet and respectful.
  • Growth. Prompting fades as confidence grows.

The ripple effect

Support one person well, and everyone around them rises

An honest fit

Where AssistiV works best

It works well when

  • The role has routines with a clear order
  • Someone spends time prompting today
  • A manager or buddy can be involved early on

It works less well when

  • No two days have anything in common
  • Phones can’t be used at work
  • The need is mainly physical or sensory

Nobody thrives at work alone. Together, everyone does.

Build an ecosystem of support around someone

Family, employer, service or public body: there is a place for you.
