Philosophy
We offer a service tailored to the complex needs of the individual enabling the resident to integrate safely within the local community therefore achieving full citizenship. A supportive and safe environment encourages development of the individual promoting self determination and empowering the individual to take responsibility for their lives/ behaviours.
We support the resident to meet individual goals and aspirations with dignity upholding the rights of the individual. All service users are encouraged to take an active part in the running of the home, formulation of their specific care plans and risk assessments.
Residents are supported to achieve greater levels of independence, with staff working closely with the resident to encourage them to develop and practice key skills. Residents access local services for their educational / recreational needs.
