Community support for young people's mental health
Delicate Health & Care offers short to medium-term placements and supports transitions into independent living. We provide a range of support mechanisms for children and young people with emotional needs, behavioural difficulties, and mild learning disabilities. Our multi-disciplinary team assesses the needs of each individual and develops bespoke care plans to address their specific requirements.
We have registered therapists as part of our team who provide specialist interventions and support. By utilizing integrative models of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioural, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches, we can better address the needs of young people who may present as challenging. We understand the importance of building trust and ensuring therapeutic success through nurturing and empowering relationships.
Each young person in our care is assigned a keyworker who displays patience, commitment, and respect while maintaining clear professional boundaries. The keyworker develops a co-developed personalized plan for each individual, ensuring that their needs and goals are addressed effectively.
We provide assistance and support for our service users' medical and health needs, including attending appointments and participating in rehabilitation and nutrition groups. We ensure their well-being is properly monitored and documented, with robust action plans in place.
We work closely with the service users, referring social workers, and lead agencies to achieve positive outcomes for each individual. We maintain consistent communication and have a solid reputation for providing support and intervention services to looked-after children and young people leaving care.
We prioritize the involvement of young people in all aspects of their care. We listen to their voices, encourage their participation, and value their input. Our approach aligns with the principles of Every Child Matters and the Principles for Residential Child Care agenda, ensuring that the young person's well-being and development are at the center of our service delivery.
We facilitate weekly meetings led by our in-house therapist to increase staff understanding of the emotional needs of the young people in our care. These meetings also provide learning opportunities for service users and raise awareness of emotional well-being. We create a supportive environment where emotional support and growth are valued.
We respect and promote diversity, challenging oppressive and discriminatory attitudes. We treat each individual as an individual, regardless of their sexual orientation, disability, religion, gender, or race. We strive to create an inclusive and accepting environment where everyone feels valued and respected.
We encourage young people to engage positively in pro-social community-based activities. By providing opportunities for social integration and community involvement, we help them develop valuable social skills and become active participants in society.
By choosing Delicate Health & Care, you can expect comprehensive support, a therapeutic approach, person-centered care, respect for diversity, and a commitment to positive outcomes for the young people in our care. We prioritize their well-being, growth, and development, and work collaboratively with them and other agencies to achieve lasting positive change.
