Learning Disabilities

We support people with many different types of learning disabilities, enabling them to
learn essential skills and reach their goals whilst also promoting greater independence.

Our sole focus is always on those we support and what works for them. In collaboration
with service users, their circle of support and involved professionals, we create person-
centred support plans, to ensure we are building on each person’s strengths, abilities and aspirations.

It’s incredibly important that those we support understand and are happy with their personalised plans. That’s why we create our plans using a variety of different communication tools/methods to enable their understanding. We support individuals to co-produce their plans.

Each support plan promotes an understanding that every individual with learning disabilities will develop at their own pace.
We’re very aware that development can be impacted by many factors.
So, our teams adapt to the needs of the individual and identify alternate goal-achieving methods which may better suit the person.
Promoting independence with the individual at the centre of their care making their own choices and decisions is key for
Colchester HomeCare as we believe this enhances service users’ lives.
