Ford Cottage is a large detached house
set in spacious gardens, located in rural location about 4
miles from Stafford town centre. The house provides residential
accommodation for up to three young people, each with a single
room of their own.
The dedicated and experienced staff team offers intensive
support to young people aged 10-18yrs who are behaviourally
challenging and emotionally vulnerable.
Each young person has their own key worker who meets with
them on a regular basis
and works closely with the ‘in house’ clinician
and teachers from The National Teaching and Advisory Service
to assess, prepare and implement individual care, education
and behaviour management plans.
A psychological assessment is completed on admission by the
clinician who also provides direct therapeutic support to
the young people and works with the staff team to develop,
monitor and review behaviour management strategies.
The education programme is delivered by qualified teachers
working in partnership with residential care workers and aims
to ensure educational inclusion is a priority and statutory
requirements are met.
Young people are encouraged to be pro-active in the running
of the home and to be actively involved in making choices
and taking part in decision making processes.
