Our Principles
At Innovative Start we offer a comprehensive range of services, which include more flexible tenancy supported living solutions, domiciliary care, respite care and transition to independence in England. We offer expertise across a wide range of complex needs and specialist conditions, including caring for people with challenging behaviours.
We provide a complete life approach, from supporting our service users in their family home through to supporting them within the community. We support service users with a whole spectrum of needs.
Deciding on the right package of support is dependent on what works best for the individual involved. For some people, residential care is most appropriate on an on-going basis. Others transfer to a tenancy supported living placement following a period in a residential home, or may move directly from home or school to their own supported living tenancy. We work in partnership with the individual needing support, their close family and their care manager to find the ideal solution.
Whatever that solution, the quality of care and support we provide is always our first priority. We can offer support to a person in their family home, own home or within one of our 24-hour supported living services. We can provide support in an emergency, for respite periods or for life.
Our aim is to promote and support independence, choice and social inclusion for our service users, within a supportive, safe, social and stimulating network.
