Our Service
We are a day centre
offering meaningful daytime activities for up to 74 Vulnerable Adults
on a weekly basis. The activities include work experience and various
educational courses. We also have a social club which encourages people
to have social outings and holidays.
The Service Review
The review
took place between May 2003 and July 2003. The review involved interviewing
nine service users who attend the centre with regards to their lives.
The review team consisted
of two local authority social workers, two members of staff, two trustees,
a trainee clinical psychologist, a senior additional support worker, an
advocate and a service user.
The Findings
Key Areas
that are Going Well
• In general
people perceive themselves to be safe from bullying and abuse.
• We found that
most people got all the help they needed to look after their health.
• Evidence suggested
that most people are treated with respect.
• Family views
are listened too.
Key Areas That Need to Change
•
People find it difficult to have friendships and relationships.
• People often
don’t make important decisions about their lives.
• People are
not enabled to be part of their local community.
• People don’t
get the opportunity for integrated employment.
Action Plan
The review
team developed an action plan with named responsibility and timescales
to address the key areas that need to change.
