We are a trauma-responsive organization, adopting practices that avoid re-traumatization and actively support relational healing. Our care framework acknowledges the profound impact of cumulative traumatic experiences and incorporates strategies to promote healthy behaviours, effective crisis management, and emotional recovery.
We recognize that healing is a journey, and we are committed to walking alongside each child as they navigate their path to a brighter future.
Our Model of Care
Our care model integrates trauma-informed principles with the understanding of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. This framework guides our holistic approach to supporting children, addressing their:
Biological and Physiological Needs: Providing nutritious meals, comfortable shelter, and adequate rest.
Safety Needs: Ensuring a secure environment with stability, order and protection.
Belongingness and Love Needs: Building positive relationships with peers, staff,
and family.
Esteem Needs: Encouraging self-confidence, achievement, and independence.
Self-Actualiztion Needs: Supporting personal growth and fulfillment.
In addition, our care approach incorporates the following models:
Trauma-Informed Care (TCI) Model:
Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) provides tools and strategies to de-escalate crises, manage challenging behaviors, and build a safe, respecful environment for children.
TCI emphasizes fostering trusting relationships and teaching self-regulation skills, essential for emotional recovery and growth.
Our staff are extensively trained in TCI techniques, ensuring they can effectively support children in moments of crisis while promoting healing and resilience.
By focusing on proactive intervention and creating positive experiences, TCI helps
children feel secure and empowered to overcome their challenges.
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) is an evidence-based and person-centred approach that uses a multi-component intervention and assessment process to support the child. PBS focuses on understanding the reasons behind challenging behaviors and teaching alternative skills to promote positive outcomes.
This proactive approach helps children develop coping mechanisms, improve social interactions, and achieve a better quality of life
Through individualized care plans and programs, we work collaboratively with children to identify and achieve their goals.
Each care plan is developed with input from the child, ensuring it reflects their unique aspirations and needs.
Our team of compassionate professionals provides consistent support, helping children build essential life skills andprepare for their futures.
At Zamab Care, we are more than just a care provider. We are a community committed toempowering children to overcome challenges and realize their full potential.
