Floating support services

Personalized Support Plans

We develop individualized support plans based on each resident’s specific needs, goals, and circumstances. These plans are regularly reviewed and adjusted as individuals progress and their requirements change.

Flexible Intensity of Support

Our support can be adjusted in intensity and frequency according to each person’s changing needs – from intensive daily support during challenging periods to light-touch check-ins as independence increases.

How Our Service Works

1. Referral and Assessment: We accept referrals from local authorities, statutory bodies, and directly from residents in our properties. Each referral undergoes a comprehensive assessment to identify support needs.
2. Support Planning: Working collaboratively with the individual, we develop a personalized support plan with clear goals and action steps.
3. Regular Support Sessions: Support workers meet with residents according to their agreed schedule – from daily sessions to weekly or fortnightly meetings.
4. Progress Reviews: Support plans are regularly reviewed to track progress, celebrate achievements, and adjust goals as needed.
5. Coordinated Working: We liaise with other involved agencies to ensure coordinated support without duplication or gaps.
6. Gradual Reduction: As independence increases, support typically reduces in intensity, eventually leading to successful completion when goals are achieved.
