We provide 24/7 support and specialist care within our residential and supported living services. We believe every person we support should have opportunities to develop meaningful relationships, learn new skills and spend time doing what they love.
Specialist Support & Care Services
At Parkfield house we don’t just provide specialist care and support, we empower people to live richer lives. Through our residential and supported living services, people with autism can learn, work and create lifelong friendships in a positive, structured environment.
Our community based homes are so much more than a place to live. Our dedicated staff work hard to foster safe and welcoming environments that encourage independence and living life to the full.
In these inclusive communities, people with autism live life on their own terms while knowing a helping hand is always available. We offer a range of thoughtful services and activities that promote not only self-confidence and independence but fun and joyfulness as well.
In each of our community-based homes, we encourage people with autism to live independently in a way that is meaningful to them. Our approach is guided by the principles of “person-centredness”. This means the autism support we provide is always based on the specific needs, desires and ambitions of each individual.
Autism Focused Specialist Services
Our staff teams and registered managers are specialists in supporting people with autism. We provide all our staff with an intensive training programme based on our years of experience and the latest research-based strategies for supporting complex needs.
We know people with autism sometimes find it difficult to feel heard and this can lead to unmet needs or wants. As part of our proactive and preventive approach, we use person-centred Positive Behaviour Support (PBS).
PBS is a compassionate and comprehensive approach aimed at identifying and meeting a person’s support needs. By looking beyond a person’s behaviour to understand the reasons for their distress and the way their environment may be impacting them, PBS allows the people we support to feel seen and heard.
