Who this service is for

Our physical disability support is designed for individuals who:

• Have significant mobility restrictions or reduced motor function

• Require ongoing personal care and physical assistance

• Need safe transfers and specialist moving and handling

• Are recovering from surgery or undergoing rehabilitation

How care is delivered

Physical disability support is delivered through carefully structured care packages, with a strong focus on safety, consistency and long-term sustainability.
 

Care planning is informed by clinical guidance and multidisciplinary input where required. Delivery focuses on continuity of staff, clear routines and proactive monitoring to reduce risk and support independence wherever possible.

Care is reviewed regularly, with clear escalation processes in place should needs change.
 

Commissioning and transitions

Physical disability support is most commonly commissioned as a long-term service, though we also support:

• Step-up and step-down packages

• Rehabilitation-led transitions

• Interim support following provider breakdown
   

Where urgent support is required, we can mobilise interim care quickly depending on location, while longer-term packages are planned to ensure the right staff are recruited, trained and embedded.
