Caring for someone with a brain or spinal injury

Damage to the brain or spinal cord will typically result in physical disability but can also sometimes affect their behaviour, personality and cognitive abilities.  Therefore, each individual’s needs greatly vary and so too will the level of care and support they need.  

We provide care for clients, of all ages, with a range of spinal cord and acquired brain injuries and are able to support all aspects of personal care such as bladder and bowel management including autonomic dysreflexia.  Many clients need support not only physically but psychologically as they learn to adapt to their new life and overcome new challenges.

“From the time Mark left hospital they have cared for him and helped us to!”

“As a service, they are committed to patient-centred care, working with families to deliver bespoke care.”

Former Assistant Director of Nursing NHS England, and Care Quality Commission Improvement Lead
