Through a comprehensive pre-admission process led by our experienced managers and clinical team, we ensure that the unique needs of the people we support are fully understood and met. Our ethos is to empower individuals through unwavering support, guided by our ‘Principles of Good Practice’ and robust governance embedded in our daily operations.

Adherence to Excellence
At Focus Care Supported Living, we rigorously uphold the fundamental standards of care and support as mandated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Our steadfast adherence to the CQC’s ‘Right Care, Right Support, Right Culture’ framework ensures that our service delivery is not only exceptional but also consistently meets the highest standards of regulatory compliance.
We are committed to addressing the five key questions:
This commitment is mirrored in our pursuit of outstanding outcomes, where every aspect of care is meticulously aligned with the CQC’s person-centred care principles. Our compliance with CQC regulations reinforces our dedication to providing a nurturing environment that fosters safety, caring relationships, effective healthcare practices, responsive support systems, and well-led governance. By integrating these frameworks into our daily practice, we ensure that every individual in our care receives the right support, in the right way, at the right time.
Expertise and Comprehensive Support
Our expertise lies in crafting personalised support plans, especially for those with complex needs. The people we support benefit from the unwavering backing of community nurses and have seamless access to General Practitioner Services for specialist referrals when necessary. Our setting is thoughtfully designed to be supportive and adaptable, catering to the varied needs and preferences of the people we support.
Enhancing Lives
We are devoted to enhancing the lives of the people we support, with a team of skilled professionals trained to address the diverse needs of individuals with learning disabilities and autism. Our support workers are instrumental in creating a sense of community and engagement, offering meaningful activities tailored to each individual, fostering a strong sense of belonging. The people we support have access to a wide range of healthcare services, including physiotherapy, dietary consultations, and other therapeutic interventions, provided through the National Health Service or private provisions, as preferred.
We are determined to ensure that the services we deliver are of a quality that people living with us and their families have every right to expect. Focussing on what we can do and not on what we can’t do!
We provide person-centred support to people which includes facing the challenges they do in social situations. We strive continuously to ensure that people live fulfilling and independent lives in their communities, as citizens, by reducing inequality and improving agreed outcomes.
Our services promote the Named Nurse and Key-Worker approach to encourage, support and guide our service users in expressing their own choices. Setting and accomplishing personal goals to develop the skills they need to live as independently as possible.
