Is care provided?

09 January 2012
Care is provided but depending on which scheme the person is residing at, will vary the way it is provided.
At Lench's Close and Tanner's Close there is a Scheme Manager whose duties do not include 'a hands on' approach for the resident's individual care. However, the Scheme Manager is essential for assessing the needs of individual residents and instumental in supporting the resident to access the most appropriate care package either from social services or a private agency.

At William Lench Court it differs from the other two schemes as it is both a sheltered housing and an extra-care facility. This connotation incorporates the 24 hour presence of a Care Team at the scheme (Lench's Trust are working in partnership with Yardley Great Trust who provide the care). The Care Team will assess applicants before they move into the scheme and the appropriate care package is set up or as and when necessary whilst living at the scheme, so as to provide the necessary care package required to ensure the well being of individual residents is being addressed.
