Service available in:
We are part of the Autism Teams in Halton, Knowsley, St Helens and Warrington
We work with autistic people who are reaching crisis and may otherwise require an admission to hospital or may be at risk of a placement breakdown.
We enhance the support that is already provided by services and can contribute and support the management of risk, care and safety planning. We can also provide training to other people involved in the person’s care.
We provide support and specialist advice to other professionals (such as housing providers) when a person is moving from inpatient services to the community, to make sure people are safe.
We work as a team with staff, patients and their carers to understand what’s happening, decide what support we can offer and use different techniques to help develop a care plan together.
We also support people who are at risk of offending and getting into trouble with the police.
