Transitions work in partnership with local authority commissioners to provide sufficient accommodation, and develop tailored packages of support to meet the needs of the individual young person.
Our services include:
- Therapeutic residential (coming soon) for young people 11+
- 24/7 staffed high support provision for young people 16yrs +.
- Training Flats with floating support for young people 17yrs + who are deemed ready to transition from 24/7 high support.
There is an expectation that all new referrals spend time in our high support accommodation, for a period of assessment. This enables Transitions staff, and the young persons, to determine the young person level of independence skills, and ensure the right long term support and accommodation need is identified.
All our 16+ accommodation and support services:
- Accept emergency referrals, alleviating the need to use unsuitable temporary accommodation.
- Assess the young person’s baseline support needs and create an Individual Support Plan to assist their development.
- Work with the young person’s social worker/personal advisor to develop a clear and relevant pathway plan.
- Set clear boundaries about behaviour to ensure that young people are kept safe.
NB: Our accommodation services allow no overnight guests and there is an expectation that young people return at a stipulated time at night.
