Lot Information
Lot 1
This provision is key to the sustainability of some of West Lothian's most complex packages of care. Without this provision, care for some of these children at home, could break down and West Lothian currently has no in-house residential provision. This provision forms part of our statutory duties. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child Article 31 states that children and young people have a right to relax and play. Article 23 in regards to Children with Disability states they have the right to enjoy a full and decent life with dignity. The Scottish Government has committed to embed these rights in law. The service is specialist in nature and targeted at children where their disability is impacting on their ability to engage in community-based activities, who have significant and complex needs and who meet the eligibility criteria to receive a budget. It is targeted at families of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Intellectual and Physical disabilities and with a high level of additional needs. The personal care and one to one support service is delivered in the Childs home and outreach one to one support can be delivered in the wider West Lothian area, with the service provider utilizing community resources and amenities, such as community centers, groups, outdoor activities, all in line with agreed assessed outcomes. The provider works with the CDS team other stakeholders such as Schools, Children and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) and NHS to ensure a robust care plan is delivered for children and young people with disabilities. The service is designed to be able to flex delivery dependent on the needs of the children at any particular time so a range of support provision can be delivered. The overall outcomes of delivery of the care and support to these young people include : Reduce social isolation - ensuring CYP have access to inclusive experiences and positive opportunities to meet others, build social skills and form friendships ; Provide a break in care - providing CYP and parents/carers some respite and time outside their normal routine. This enhances their ability to maintain resilience in caring duties ; Provide a befriending/mentoring support role- ensuring access to a wide range of inclusive opportunities and fun activities in which CYP have an interest and can become included and active within their local community ; Develop independence skills - involving CYP in safe, meaningful activities that offer them opportunities to try different things, gain new experiences, develop skills and broaden their horizons ; Provide a level of personal care - through respectful, dignified personal care undertaken by trained staff in line with our robust organisational policies and procedures. A review of the delivery of the first year of service provision was carried out in December 2021. This included review of service delivery model, the providers staffing compliment and skills to deliver the service and ensuring young people supported had appropriate care plans created and risk assessments carried out. Parents of children who were supported by the service all reported significant levels of satisfaction with the type and level of support their Child had received..
