Assessment Process

All clients are referred to us using our referral forms or by contacting the office directly. They are referred from various agencies, such as Social Services, Probation Service, Youth Offending Team, Benefits Agency, Homeless Department and other voluntary & statutory organizations.

All referrals must be accompanied by a completed external risk assessment & or supporting documents (where possible). All referrals are assessed at an interview for their eligibility for supported accommodation. All applicants have a right to be interviewed to determine their needs and whether their needs can be met by the service.

After the applicant’s interview and a needs and risk assessment have been carried out, a decision will be made as to whether we can offer the applicant supported accommodation.

We will inform the applicant and referring agency of our decision. If the applicant is offered supported accommodation, he or she will accept the support plan, which will

be person-centered and engage on a weekly basis as part of the Licence Agreement.

Failure to engage with the support plan may result in a review of the client’s support needs and a decision made as to whether or not the service meets those needs. Staff is trained and committed to assisting applicants through the assessment process.

The clients live together as a community, working together and interacting with one another for the collective benefit of everyone.

Note: It is the discretion of the Housing support management to refuse the applicant at the assessment stage if the individual does not meet the organisation’s allocations criteria.

Note: Police checks are carried out before an individual is allowed to access our services (only at some sites).
