Service Overview:

One of these properties will be regulated for use as a Family Residential Centre. A Family Residential Centre (also known as a Parent-Child Residential Placement) is an establishment that provides residential placements for parents and their children to monitor and assess the parents' ability to respond to their children's needs and to safeguard and promote their children's welfare whilst this assessment is being completed.

Initial Location of Post:

There have been limited family residential placements available in the local region. This new provision will allow for families to have a placement local to their communities, improving outcomes for the families and children.

This provision will take a therapeutic needs-based approach to ensure that the support to each child and family receives is the most appropriate to their specific needs.

This provision will focus on the following principles intended to improve outcomes:

Self- contained family flats as part of a safe and structured living environment Residential workers who are warm and responsive Tailored support, role modelling and mentoring to support parenting with a focus on children's behaviour, attachment, family relationships and children's development Therapeutic support and relationships Trauma-informed approaches
