Supervised Access

Supervised Access

Family in a green field

Here at Empowerment Plus we support access by providing a non-judgemental approach, with the aim of ensuring supervised visits are positive for young people, parents and/or relatives involved.

EPLUS staff can support access by

  • Assisting in the co-ordination of access
  • Transporting young people or family members to and from access
  • Encouraging appropriate interactions
  • Providing art activities or supporting play
  • Modelling behaviours and/or provide parenting support when required
  • Communicating with parents and offering feedback
  • Redirecting inappropriate conversations or if necessary, ceasing access if in the best interest of the child
  • Observing access and documenting reports for TUSLA
  • Providing court reports or giving evidence where necessary
