Fairfield Farm College

The service supported people to transition from a residential college environment towards independent living. People using the service receive planned and co-ordinated person-centred support that is appropriate and inclusive for them.

The outcomes for people using the service reflected the principles and values of Registering the Right Support by promoting choice and control, independence and inclusion. People's support focused on them having as many opportunities as possible for them to gain new skills and become more independent. People use the service for a limited time and are supported to move on to longer term accommodation.

People received a person-centred service. Support was tailored to individual need and focussed on increasing people's independent living skills.

People were supported to make their own choices, be fully involved in their care planning, daily routines and goals they wished to achieve.

People received caring and compassionate care from staff who knew them well and were well trained.

People were safe and risk assessments balanced their freedom against personal safety.

People had the opportunity to develop new skills and interests and had a wide variety of clubs, sports, activities and work placements to choose from.

People were supported to maintain their physical and mental health with GP, nurse and specialist appointments. The service worked well with health and social care colleagues to meet people's individual needs.

The service was well led. The management team complimented each other in their skills and experience and worked well together to achieve good outcomes for the people they supported.
