Learning Disabilities

Specialist knowledge

PULSE Independent Living provides a high quality service enabling clients to live independent lives - supported in their own homes, living environments and communities.

Our workers are thoroughly competent in supporting people with learning disabilities and can provide enabling care. We offer short or long-term support for clients with a variety of needs including:

• Autism Spectrum Disorders
• Attention Deficit Disorder
• Dyspraxia
• Down’s Syndrome

No two individuals with a learning disability will be the same and so each client will require greatly different levels of support to manage day-to-day living. Some conditions can also be associated with a physical disability. Where it is needed, we can also offer support workers with qualifications and experience in handling challenging behaviours.

We can extend our services to provide and manage multidisciplinary packages focused on individual client needs - including physiotherapy, occupational therapy and psychiatry services.

How we work

Working in partnership, the PULSE Independent Living team will develop a person-centred care plan offering each client empowerment and choice. Each plan is based on a full assessment of health and social care support needs and is undertaken by a social care support professional or qualified nurse or, taking into account social and health needs and ensures that we provide a safe, reliable and personalised service.

Our client organisations

Our client organisations include PCTs, charities, non-statutory organisations, Social Services or individuals controlling their own budgets.

All our clients can be assured the staff we provide to them are carefully selected to meet their needs; for each worker we place we consider their experience and skills, but also their personality. Wherever possible we involve clients in choosing their support worker.
