Accommodation, Referrals and Careers
Our Typical Accommodation
Our homes are designed with children and young people in mind and we would want nothing but for them to feel the homely, welcoming, and comfortable warm environment. We aim to ensure that the environment and culture we create give young people a sense of belonging and ownership of thier individual accommodation needs.
Each child would have thier own allocated bedroom, whilst they share communal facilities. All other rooms in the house will be equipped and adopted to meet the needs of the children and young people sharing the house.
Referrals
Milestone Living welcomes all children and young people from all walks of life with an aid of a robust risk assessment to ensure matching process will be a success.
We will support each child and young person to develop:
- A person-centred plan to identify and work towards their aspirations in life
- A structured support plan identifying the details of support services to be provided by ML and any other organisation or friends and family
- A health action plan to assist in the promotion of good physical and mental health, ensuring the service user's well-being and making sure that all appropriate health appointments and checks are planned and monitored.
