Who We Support
PCAS Kent offers support to people who are Neurodivergent, have Learning Differences or have Mental Health Needs all across Kent. We offer Supported Living in Shared Housing, as well as Bespoke Support, a service where we come to the Individual's Home to offer Support.
About Us
We provide person-centred support for neurodivergent people and people with learning differences. We provide support for people with long-term mental health conditions who as a result, have social care support needs to maintain a level of independence.
We also support people living with dementia and those with other health challenges who require some assistance to remain living at home.
Promoting ability rather than disability, we seek to build support packages that focus on what an individual can do and move on from there.
We always strive to achieve greater independence for the people we support to give them maximum control and choice over what happens in their lives.
We support people to live as independently as possible, working towards identified goals and outcomes. This can be in shared housing, self-contained accommodation or for an individual living in their own home.
We are aware of certain factors that may have an impact – the
environment, sensory issues, communication, but recognise that no two people
are the same and so support is planned accordingly.
We recognise the importance of taking a holistic view of support and working in a multi-disciplinary way with other professionals, for example, social services, health practitioners, community mental health teams, etc.
We also ensure that families, friends, and anyone else within the social network are involved where this is the desire of the person we're supporting.
