<p> At The Richardson Partnership for Care, we strive to have an open relationship with service users and their families so that they can tell us straight away if they are concerned about any aspect of their care or their home. We hold regular care reviews as well as completing an annual survey.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/care-homes-shine-in-independent-feedback/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> We learn about the world constantly through our senses and by interacting with it. This process of exploration and learning starts in childhood and continues throughout our lives. However, people with learning difficulties may not have had the same opportunities to explore and interact with their environment, and people with acquired brain injuries may need to repeat some of these learning experiences.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/sensory-awareness-groups/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> Reports show that in today’s modern world, where people are ‘online and connected’ 24 hours a day, they are less likely to know their neighbours. This can lead to a sense of loss of community, isolation and loneliness.</p> <p>For people with disabilities, this risk of being isolated from the local community is even greater.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/the-joys-and-benefits-of-the-local-pub/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> Dysphagia (or difficulty with chewing and swallowing) is common amongst people who have had a stroke or other type of acquired brain injury. It is often caused by damage to the nerves and muscles of the head, face and neck and also by damage to the brain.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/helping-people-with-dysphagia-to-enjoy-food-safely/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> Each year, at The Richardson Partnership for Care we send out a short questionnaire to the family members of service users in our homes. This requests feedback on the general care provision and the quality of the residential homes, and is in addition to specific communication about the service user.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/excellent-feedback-on-residential-care-from-service-users-families/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> Now that Spring has arrived, we are looking forward positively to the year ahead. This is often a time when young adults with learning difficulties are preparing to move from school or college to a new environment. Below we outline how we can help to enable a smooth transition and assist service users in settling in to their new environment.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/transition-young-adults-learning-difficulties/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>



<p> As a matter of course we arrange that each of our homes have a monthly house meeting where all of the Service Users and the staff come together and plan group outings for the coming month as well as provide the opportunity for some open discussions with the service users.→ <a href="https://www.richardsoncares.co.uk/regular-engagement-of-service-users-in-their-daily-lives-at-rpc/" class="read-more">Read the rest </a></p>
