What We Offer

Our Services

At Active Healthcare Services, we focus on providing you and your loved ones with the support needed to promote independent living and maximising potential. Our services are designed to meet needs of those on the Autistic spectrum and other disabilities.

Autism Services

Active Healthcare Services provides support services for people with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC). All packages of support are tailored to the unique needs of the individual. We promote choice and independence with a focus on helping our clients achieve their aspirations for an independent and productive life. We work with service users to develop the skills needed to live independently in their communities.

 

We understand that ASC requires personalised approaches; this is reflected in the provision of bespoke services. We offer support that ranges from a small number of hours per week to full time support packages. The level of support is dependent on a person’s individual needs. Our focus is to support people to gain valuable life skills, pursue personal interests and to minimise the risk of isolation. Support is provided in people’s homes and in the community.

 

What makes Active Healthcare Services unique is our resilience, determination, flexibility, personalisation, fun, focus, knowledge, expertise and innovative approach.

Complex Care

As a provider of complex care services, we understand the challenges that individuals face when living with long-term conditions. Active Healthcare Services delivers complex care to individuals who are suffering with severe disabilities and complex health needs in their own homes. These service users are often confronted with a lack of real choice, reduced independence and isolation, the future can seem challenging. Our care at home service allows those suffering with life limiting and long terms conditions to stay within their own home to receive ongoing treatment and support. We work in partnership with both the private and public sector to deliver high-quality person-centred care. We pride ourselves in recruiting support workers who have the specific skills to meet the needs of our clients with complex needs. We place a strong emphasis on continuing professional development through training which meets the national standards as well as bespoke service user specific training.

Day Opportunities

Day Support Services are provided for people with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC), and Learning and Physical Disabilities. Individual programmes of support are prepared in consultation with each service user. Our aim is to enable people to attain the highest level of independence appropriate to them through our Day Support Services.

Service users attend Active Healthcare Services Day Support as part of a package of care.  
The service is run by the Service Coordinator who is supported by support workers. Support workers are involved in coordinating the wide range of activities and overseeing the person centred support plans for each individual. Support is offered on a 1:1 basis or 2:1 basis, in accordance to their support plan and requirements.

We aim to provide respite to family members and informal carers that support their loved one with additional and complex needs at home. We aim to provide social inclusion to minimise isolation which many of our service users experience. We work with the individual service user to improve existing skills, learn new skills, promoting mental stimulation and encouraging social interaction with the wider community.

Day Opportunities

Learning Disabilities

Active Healthcare Services provides support services for people with Learning Disabilities (LD). All packages of support are tailored to the unique needs of individuals. We promote choice and independence with a focus on helping our clients achieve their aspirations for an independent and productive life. We also support our clients with learning life skills as they contribute to their community.

We understand that LD require personalised approaches, this is reflected through our person-centred care plans and bespoke support packages. We offer support that ranges from a few hours a week to full time support packages. The level of support is dependent on the service user’s individual needs. Our focus is to support people to gain valuable life skills, pursue personal interests and to minimise the risk of isolation. We believe that people with learning disabilities can learn new skills and we will support them to reach their full potential in safe environments. Support is provided in people’s homes and in the community. We work in partnership with NHS Community Learning Disability teams to develop and evaluate intervention strategies. This multi-agency working allows professionals with different expertise to work together in order to meet the needs of our clients holistically.

COVID-19 Update

CURRENT INFORMATION - Coronavirus (COVID-19)

We are open and supporting service users through the current pandemic. Read on for further information on COVID-19

 

Generally, coronavirus can cause severe symptoms in people with weakened immune systems, older people, and those with long term conditions like diabetes, cancer, and chronic lung disease.

 

The most common symptoms are a new:

  • Continuous cough
  • Fever/high temperature (37.8C or greater)

Some people will have more serious symptoms, including pneumonia or difficulty breathing, which might require admission to hospital.

 

If you have developed symptoms (however mild) in the last 7 days, stay at home for 7 days from the start of your symptoms and arrange to be tested. Do not go to your GP, pharmacy, or hospital.

 

You should remain at home until you get the result of the test, and then follow the advice you will be given on the result.

 

People can become infected when droplets land directly on them or they touch contaminated objects and surfaced. That is why good respiratory hygiene and hand washing are so important.

The virus might also spread by people 2 days before developing symptoms or by those who don’t develop symptoms at all.

 

You can reduce your risk of getting and spreading the infection by:

  • Avoiding direct hand contact with your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • Maintaining good hand hygiene.
  • Avoiding direct contact with people that have a respiratory illness and avoid using their personal items such as their mobile phone.
  • Covering your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing with disposable tissues and disposing of them in the nearest waste bin after use.
  • Following the guidance for households with possible coronavirus infection if someone in your household has symptoms.
  • Making sure everyone in the household follows the Scottish Government’s Coronavirus advice as much as possible and to stay away from other people.
  • Making sure everyone in your household follows the physical distancing advice, especially anyone in a vulnerable group.
  • Helping those at extremely high risk of severe illness with coronavirus to follow the shielding advice.
  • You can’t catch coronavirus from food, but it is possible to catch it if you touch an infected surface or object and then touch your mouth or nose.

Wash your hand regularly

Wash your hands with soap and water or alcohol hand sanitiser before eating and drinking, and after coughing, sneezing, and going to the toilet.
