Supported Living Service

The Complex Care Programme (CCP) will commission three community rehabilitation facilities (offering 42 beds in total), which will benefit 54 people pa. This service will be an integrated partnership between clinicians and the voluntary sector and offer specialist rehabilitation intervention for adults with complex mental health needs and significant comorbidities, each with capacity to support 14 people at any one time. The support service will not require a CQC registration.

The Services will provide specialist enhanced rehabilitation support to adults typically aged 18-65 diagnosed with severe and enduring mental health needs who would benefit from an intensive rehabilitation and recovery-focused approach which will best be met by an integrated clinical and voluntary sector shared model of care and support within an accommodation-based service.

The services will enable people to receive a community-based service and avoid admission into a rehabilitation unit. It will also strengthen the level of care and support for service users requiring rehabilitation after their discharge from hospital and will mean they have lower levels of need when they step down into supported living.
The clinical element will take the form of in-reach, which will typically include psychiatry, occupational therapy, nursing, and psychology input. This will be provided by the local Mental Health Trust Community Rehabilitation Team who will in-reach to a voluntary sector provider-led 24 hour supported accommodation service.
