CareTech supports a wide range of people but has always specialised in the individual support of people with learning difficulties, especially those with additional physical or psychological impairment or with autistic spectrum disorder.
We also provide for an increasing number of people with sensory impairment, physical disabilities, mental health issues, substance misuse and acquired brain injury.
Support is offered within a highly individualised and professional planning process where the service user is a full participant.
A small but growing number of people purchase their own packages of support from us using one of several types of direct payment.
We also operate resource centres that offer opportunities to learn new skills; focussing on increasing independence, job seeking and managing relationships. In our supported living programmes, we offer a club house style of resource centre.
