Empowering Individuals in Their Communities

At Bracknell Forest Council, we believe in providing our residents with the right support at the right time, enabling them to lead fulfilling lives in their own homes. Our mission is to ensure that individuals receive the assistance they need to thrive within their local communities.

In our Adult Social Care Hub, we are dedicated to uplifting our most vulnerable citizens through a strengths-based approach, prioritizing the individual in every action we take. Our Social Workers are committed to understanding the unique needs of each person, working collaboratively to enhance their independence and overall quality of life.

We take pride in our integrated approach, partnering with various organizations to deliver comprehensive and seamless support to those in need.

The Experience of Being Part of Our Team...

Our Adult Social Care service is comprised of skilled and supportive multidisciplinary teams. We foster a culture of collaboration and accessibility, ensuring that our social care teams work in unison to provide the best possible support for our residents.

We collaborate closely with health professionals and other partners to prevent unnecessary hospitalizations and facilitate timely returns home when care is required.

Our focus on Early Intervention and rehabilitation services is designed to help individuals remain in their homes for as long as possible.

Regular multidisciplinary forums ensure that our residents have straightforward access to coordinated health and social care services, providing holistic support tailored to their needs.

Recognizing the challenges of working in Adult Social Care, we prioritize the well-being of our staff. Regular supervision and training opportunities are provided to support professional growth and development. We value feedback from our social care staff and actively seek their input on enhancing our services.

  • Utilizing evidence-based practices in your work.
  • Engaging actively in your own supervision and appraisal processes.
  • Taking responsibility for your professional development, including mandatory training.
  • Leading specific projects as needed.
Benefits of Joining Our Team...
