SweetTree’s Learning Disabilities Outreach Service Supports adults with learning disabilities with a natural person-centred transition towards greater independence The SweetTree Outreach Service provides care and support possible at home & in the community for people with mild, moderate and severe learning disabilities. We believe in providing a personalised service and reflecting this our support packages are always individually tailored to meet the specific needs of each service user. Our overall aim is to support people to reach their full potential and we achieve this by facilitating the learning of new skills and confidence building, whilst embracing the value of learning. Our expertise in supporting people with autism & differing behaviours is delivered using SweetTree’s philosophy of care and the PROACT-SCIPr-UK Model. PROACT SCIPr-UK® is a holistic approach used when working with differing behaviours. Support workers are trained to identify triggers and recognise early behavioural indicators, so that appropriate interventions can be used to prevent a crisis from occurring. Our proactive style improves the quality of life for our service users and their families; reducing social barriers and enabling a more active & fulfilling life. Our support workers are specifically trained to meet the needs of people with a range of learning disabilities & mental health needs, varying from mild anxiety to severe mental health problems.
