Care and Support

Children living away from their home and family have often suffered from trauma or adverse life events. At times children are unable to manage the range of emotions the feel due to their experiences. Children can suffer from grief and loss associated with separation from their family and friends

Children in our homes live in an environment of care and support that gives attention to their individual needs

Children are helped to stay safe, be healthy, enjoy and achieve, make a positive contribution, develop their own resources and achieve economic well being.

Staff are highly trained and deliver therapeutic interventions based on the PACE model. They are supported by our consultant Psychologist

Our Aims and Objectives:

• To provide the highest standard of support in a safe, positive, person centered way, so that each child is empowered to achieve their maximum potential.
• To ensure each child has a personal education plan which addresses the individual needs and provides positive educational opportunities made to maximise their learning potential
• Promoting equality and diversity ensuring children are not negatively stigmatised or excluded
• Ensuring care plans and risk assessments are personalised and regularly reviewed
• To ensure children’s health needs are properly identified, met and monitored
• Facilitating a sense of belonging for children helping them understand that staff will not give up on them and that this is their long term home.
• To work closely with important people in the childs life including family, social workers and universal services and services to ensure the right support is provided at the right time.
• To focus on a child’s strength, interests, hobbies and hopes
• To support children to have continuing relationships with people important to them and to help them and to help them to develop further trusting relationships with others.
• To make sure children’s wishes and feelings are obtained and reflected in care planning
