Type of service: Residential services

Silverhill provides residence and care for six people who have complex needs arising from an autistic spectrum disorder and learning disabilities. Service users will have medium dependency needs but may also display some unpredictable and challenging behaviour. Silverhill has its own team led by a team manager who works under the co-ordination and direction of a Service Manager responsible for Silverhill and Teversal. The staff team are all required to attend the in-service staff training and development programmes including Understanding and Working with Autistic Spectrum Disorders and Accredited Behaviour Management programmes. All service users have a detailed care and support programme reflecting the aims of their individual assessment and care plan. Care plans reflect the principles of the government white paper Valuing People and all referrals are provided with a detailed pre placement assessment by independent Care Consultants.
