We ask potential clients to read through our information, then complete a referral
form with someone who knows them well acting as a referee e.g. GP, Care Co-ordinator. A risk assessment will need to be completed
by potential clients and their referee.
On receipt of a referral form we will arrange for the potential client to attend a meeting with 2
of our workers in order to complete an assessment, where we will aim to gain a better understanding of someone’s needs.
(This will include an assessment of risk). We aim to see potential clients within two weeks.
This is a 2 way process where we aim to determine if our project is best suited to someone’s needs. The
meeting also gives the opportunity for a potential client to find out about us and to decide if we are the right choice for
them.
There is usually a short waiting time for both our supported accommodation and the CSS. We keep people on the
waiting list regularly informed of any progress in allocating support.
We will
carefully consider applications from people who have a history of violence or arson, or who have been convicted of any sex
or drug offence.
We value
diversity amongst people and there is an expectation of clients that they respect other people, regardless of their sex, race,
sexual orientation, ethnic origin, religious beliefs or disability.
You
will find a referral form at the back of this information pack. If you require additional forms, please contact the office.
