Providing A Better Quality Of Life

Mental Health Care Homes

Select Healthcare has homes for adults with a diagnosed mental health illness ranging from depression, anxiety and psychological disorders to psychotic illnesses such as schizophrenia. We specialise in the assessment of Wernicke/Korsakoffs, alcohol induced disorders. We offer comprehensive and individual care packages. Placements are focused on the needs of service users, which are determined by pre-admission and risk assessments, which allow us to facilitate good outcomes for both long and short term placements. We offer a step-down programmes as an alternative to hospital stays and we support the recovery of some service users in returning to the community setting. Most people who experience mental illness have short, acute episodes and are able to return to living a 'normal life', retaining many independent skills. However, some people suffer from long term, enduring or chronic mental illness which can affect their functioning, behaviour, social and life skills. The care provided is individual, flexible and diverse and is provided by a multi-disciplinary team, comprising of registered nurses, care staff, occupational therapists and psychologists. Regular reviews are conducted with other healthcare professionals, family and friends, if appropriate, to ensure the service users' best interests are fully supported and represented. Select Healthcare prides itself on creating a safe and homely environment with emphasis on social inclusion, arranging activities both within the homes and through community outings.
