Parkwood Care

Each young person whom we support should feel safe and comfortable in a relaxed, family-oriented environment. All young people at Parkwood Care are important, special and valued. We believe that throughout their transition to adulthood young people deserve a happy and fulfilling life, appropriate support and guidance which promotes and safeguards their health, development, welfare and protects them from harm. Fundamentally, we aim to increase each young person’s potential for growth and development towards future independence and a meaningful, contented, fulfilling life. We use a relational approach with clear boundaries, demonstrating fairness in supporting challenging behaviour and care and respect for the young people who live there. Parkwood Care promotes and encourages pro-social behaviour drawing on multiple methods and approaches. All young people will have individual transition plans and risk-assessments which detail strategies to minimise the risks, manage behaviour, and de-escalate challenging situations. Encouragement, care and support are used to reinforce positive messages for the young people’s achievements. Our bespoke care plans are designed to meet each individual’s identified needs.
