Learning Disability Services
Registered Care
We provide several registered care services for individuals with learning disabilities and additional needs. These include physical and sensory disabilities, long term conditions and mental health needs.
We can also provide medication support, both in our care homes and our other registered services.
Supported Housing
Many people with learning disabilities aspire to live in their own home. With the right support, this aspiration can become a reality.
We are specialists in supporting individuals with high-level learning disabilities, complex needs and behaviour that challenges.
We work closely with each individual, their family and carers to identify and work towards the goals that are important to them – build independent living skills, manage and maintain their homes and become part of their local communities.
We support people to develop independent living skills.
Supported Living
Most of our customers with learning disabilities are helped through our supported living services. The level of support varies depending on people's needs – we can offer everything from 24-hour support to a few hours a day.
Sometimes we provide the support in a property where we are the landlord, other times we deliver our service in a building owned and managed by others.
These services are often for individuals who may be stepping down from residential care, or higher support accommodation placements. They aim to support customers to further develop their independent living skills in a safe, supportive environment.
Our floating and visiting support services support people in their own homes. Customers may have varying levels of disability, including physical and sensory needs and live in different types of accommodation.
Community-based Day Support
These services provide a wide range of daily activities and work closely with the local community to support people to get involved. These include different health and wellbeing, leisure and educational activities.
We work with people with a range of needs, those who attend both with or without carer support and can provide both transport support and/or travel training.
We provide specialist services of local authorities and NHS Trusts, many of these are registered with the Care Quality Commission. Across these services, we work with individuals with a broad range of learning disabilities, autism and Asperger's syndrome.
We are well experienced in supporting people to make choices, take control and move forward with their lives through our approach, providing services that are personalised, co-produced and delivered in partnership with health.
Across our learning disability services, we do this by supporting each individual:
✔ Through flexible, person-centred support
✔ Using assistive technology to support greater independence
✔ In partnership with their family, carers and health partners
✔ In modern high-quality accommodation, bespoke to customer needs
✔ Using appropriate augmentative and adaptive communication
✔ To manage behaviour that challenges through our Positive Behaviour Support and Positive Relationship Management framework
