Choice Care is one of the UK’s leading residential care providers for people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions. With over 30 years’ experience, we’re at the forefront of national best practice, with among the **highest CQC ratings **of any comparable organisation. We are also proud to be **one of the Top 100 Apprenticeship Employers** for the second year in a row

Our homes are more than just a place to live, they’re like a second family for everyone we support. Each home is a close knit community, with its own unique personality, and all the ups and downs of typical family life, built on trust and the promise of unconditional care. Our colleagues build close bonds with the people they care for, helping to create enduring, positive relationships that build confidence and self-esteem.

In every Choice Care home there’s a strong emphasis on living life to the full and having fun, with purposeful daily activities based on individual preferences and capabilities. Alongside this there are regular social events, projects, outings and holiday breaks which everyone can get involved in and express themselves through.

**Where will you work?**

St. Andrews is a large, detached home supporting five adults of varied ages with learning disabilities, autism and associated complex needs. The property is close to Fareham town centre, with shops and other amenities easily accessible on foot, by public transport or using the home’s own vehicle. French doors from the lounge lead into a lovely, terraced and landscaped garden with several patio and relaxation areas, and views of the surrounding countryside. There is also a summer house used for day care art and craft activities. The home provides a tailored programme of individual and group activities, to build confidence and life skills. Some attend local college courses, others are supported to move on to a more independent lifestyle, such as in supported living accommodation. St Andrews offers a warm and homely setting. Several of the residents have been supported by Choice Care for a number of years and are very settled and happy. All are well known and respected
