Providing care at home for learning difficulties involves a mix of practical support for daily tasks, emotional support, and tailoring the environment and communication to the individual’s needs.
Margarot Forrest Care Management Limited provides support for individuals with learning disabilities to pursue their personal objectives. Support is delivered in a person-centred manner using structured and customised approaches that aim to help individuals build skills and confidence.
The amount of staff involvement depends on each individual’s support needs. Individuals are encouraged to participate in community activities, maintain connections with family and friends, develop new abilities, and gain various experiences. Assistance is also offered to help individuals manage everyday tasks related to maintaining their homes.
Margarot Forrest Care Management Limited has implemented a Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Team, utilising a model that adopts person-centred, inclusive, and value-based methods to help individuals achieve their goals and enhance quality of life. The PBS approach focuses on understanding behaviour and improving support by informing organisational structure, environment, and culture. Staff across mental health, learning disability, and forensic services receive training to increase understanding of individual needs and create care plans that can be applied through practice, leadership, and mentoring.
