Referral Process
The usual process for requesting a placement for supported accommodation with Abiding Care is as follows:
-
an initial telephone consultation to discuss vacancies and appropriateness of the referral with regard to the needs of the young person
-
completion of a referral form and provision of supporting information
-
an assessment of the referral and possibly a visit to the accommodation by the young person
-
agreement on funding arrangements for the placement
-
the young person will meet their key worker where the house rules and routines will be explained
-
a placement date will be agreed
-
a placement planning meeting will be held within 72 hours of placement
Abiding Care will consider taking emergency placements.
