Aim
Our aim is to equip our clients with the knowledge, skills and ability, to take as fuller control of their lives as possible: thereby enabling them to feel more fulfilled in life through the range of opportunities offered.
Principles of Service Delivery
PIL values each service user as an individual and recognises their potential and human rights by the way our services are provided to them.
Our Objective is to:
- tackle some of the problems faced by vulnerable adults with special needs, leaving residential care or hospitals and transferring to supported living services,
- assist our clients to develop their own individualised care and support plan,
- to enable vulnerable adults to develop their confidence and maintain their dignity, by retaining control of the care and support services they receive,
- empower our clients by enabling them to choose their support workers,
- involve users of our service in the recruitment and selection of staff,
- establish and maintain effective lines of communication and joint working relationships with the referring agencies and relevant health and social care teams
