Person-centred care in Dudley

Public transport and walking are great ways to get from A to B, but what about wheelchair users, people who have not yet got the skills or confidence to use public transport, even with support, what about people with physical issues etc? We currently have a varied range of vehicle types which we currently use for getting people around the local and wider community, including vehicles that can accommodate wheelchairs. All of our drivers hold appropriate driving licences, all vehicles are fully insured, taxed, have current MOT certificates and are regularly checked and maintained in line with our health and safety policy.  

Pinnacle Support understands how the transition from school to adult life is a critical time for young people with learning disabilities and complex needs. We offer a package that promotes a steady transition well in advance of the leaving date, which involves working closely with the families and secondary contacts to build up a comprehensive understanding of the client and their individual needs and to provide a safe environment which will aid the development of a trusting relationship, making the client's transition as comfortable and stress free as possible.  

To encourage clients to maximise their inner potential, we provide support to clients wishing to seek suitable education opportunities. We offer a supported access to college placements, helping to promote greater self-confidence.

At Pinnacle Support we offer a range of community based social and recreational activities presenting the opportunity to socialise and develop personal skills, helping to strengthen confidence and encourage independence. Typical activities include bowling, swimming, sports, walking, arts and crafts, music, cinema, sensory sessions and day trips.

Pinnacle Support understands how difficult it can be when meeting new people and being introduced to new environments, therefore limiting your opportunities to improve your life skills. We can provide support that will help you develop a wide range of skills from personal hygiene, shopping, cleaning and handling money by helping you form new relationships and pursue new interests, which in turn will give you greater self-confidence and ultimately greater freedom.

We encourage and support service users to be able to make choices to lead to a physically active lifestyle. Wherever possible, our person centred packages are structured to include activities that encourage the development of physical health by promoting regular exercise, a balanced nutritious diet and adequate relaxation.

We also offer a supported residential breaks service, which provides clients with everyday life opportunities, skill building, choice and social participation. All of our assessed locations are in the UK and are suitably equipped to cater for our client's needs. Our person-centred residential packages are inclusive of transportation, accommodation, refreshments and staff support.
