Adult Supported Living Service

Supported Living Service For Adults Who No Longer Need Acute In-Patient Treatment Care But Require Re-Establishing Themselves In The Community

We will offer dedicated care and support for adults with mental health needs who have recently left inpatient treatment or whose mental health has declined, making independent living challenging.

Our approach will be grounded in proven methods, providing a clear path to help individuals regain their independence, manage their mental and physical health, support their recovery, and ensure they receive ongoing health and social care in the community. We assist individuals in sustaining their own tenancies through tailored support and progression plans.

Our home will be newly decorated and well-equipped, with regular reviews and expansions to maintain high standards. Each resident's room is thoughtfully furnished with a wardrobe, chest of drawers, medi-safe, bed, and chair. The home features two communal bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with individual lockable cupboards for personal belongings, a dining table for communal meals, a main lounge for relaxation and socialising, and a garden area visible from the separate staff office.

The home is designed to provide a welcoming, homely environment that combats institutionalisation while fostering supportive structures, routines, personal responsibility, and a high quality of life.

The least restrictive option to treatment

More than medical stabilisation for the earliest stages of recovery
