PHILOSOPHY OF CARE:
It is a belief of the organisation and staff working at 4 Ever Safe Care that change is always possible, and that behaviour is within the control of the individual. Each individual makes choices although not always with conscious awareness of themselves or of others. Any change in behaviour, thinking or feeling becomes the basis for wider changes to follow.
All women are therefore valued, are of value and are not written off or labelled because of their behaviour. We value diversity and seek to enlighten those we work with to see this value also. It is essential that the environment we create is a safe environment that promotes change, and that part of this is physical safety, therefore, we are not tolerant of dangerous or threatening behaviour. It is confronted and worked on and we expect the full support of referring agencies with this.
We recognize that all women are individuals, and that different approaches and models will be suitable or appropriate for each woman based on their strengths, interests and characteristics. We also understand that approaches need to develop over time as each woman grows and develops (both physically and emotionally). This may be due to their emotional state, level of understanding, chronological age or even an approach that captures their imagination helping them to engage. The care staff at 4 Ever Safe Care will work towards positively developing individual qualities, which will give the women an opportunity for personal growth and development.

FINDING YOUR
PLACEMENT
Once the assessment and initial visit is complete and it’s agreed that the placement will meet the individual’s care needs, we will provide a costing to the commissioning authority to be reviewed by the funding panel. If agreed, the placement is confirmed.
Each Local authority has their own eligibility criteria, based on the national criteria outlined in the Care Act. They Complete a Care Needs Assessment (CNA) to discuss your care and support needs and help you maintain your well-being and independence. The decision is based on the results of the assessment.
The local authority confirms how it will meet your needs in a Care and Support Plan, which sets out what services will be provided and when they will be provided.
