Situated 2 miles from the Centre of Bolton, The Breightmet Centre is purpose designed and built and provides 19 specialist beds. These will be within four individual apartments and additional external 'step down' services, allowing transition through individual defined care Pathway..
ASC Healthcare through a unique approach in their delivery of a social and clinical partnership model, will actively support individuals to develop a range of life skills and functional strategies that will allow individuals to live the life they want to live now and in the future..
ASC Healthcare clearly recognises and endorses the philosophy that a hospital is not a home, but a place for extra support during a critical time in a person's lifetime. The emphasis of our work from point of referral will always focus on discharge preparation..
The spectrum of conditions supported by ASC Healthcare includes those known as “classic autism” Asperger syndrome and pervasive developmental disorder - not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS), also known as “atypical autism”. .
