Supported Step-Down
In response to feedback from families and Local Authorities throughout our experience we want our assessments to offer an enhanced ‘true to life’ experience and ensure families can enjoy increased privacy whilst carefully managing any ongoing risks to their child. Ashcombe House therefore provides the potential for families to progress into there own self contained semi independent flat, where we provide:
- A range of flexible levels of monitoring to compliment families progress as part of their ongoing assessment
- Continued support with full access to our programme of in-house and community based workshops and courses
