Who we support

We provide 24-hour nursing care for adults with complex, co-occurring needs, helping people stay well, maintain their independence, and live a meaningful life.

Someone might come to live with us when they are:

  • needing increased nursing support as their needs change or progress
  • stepping down from hospital or a secure setting
  • moving from a care provider that can no longer safely meet their needs
  • looking for a new home following a previous placement breakdown.

Our three care communities have distinct profiles of need, helping us match each person with the right care, environment, and community to support a successful, sustainable placement.

Typically supports working-age adults with:

  • complex mental health needs arising from a primary mental health or neurological diagnosis, such as brain injury, early-onset dementia, bipolar disorder, recurrent major depressive disorder, or schizophrenia
  • behaviours of concern requiring a single-sex environment
  • a forensic background, where risk-related behaviours have reduced or ceased
  • a history of alcohol or other substance misuse
  • increased clinical and safety risks requiring consistent risk management
  • independent mobility and an active lifestyle.

The unit provides a male-only, structured, and supportive environment with positive behaviour support, consistent risk management, and individualised staffing and observation where needed.

Care focuses on long-term mental health stability, therapeutic engagement, relapse prevention, daily living skills, and developing greater independence and community involvement.

The unit is suited to an active, sociable community, where shared spaces and regular interaction with others are part of everyday life.

Typically supports working-age adults with:

  • a primary neurological diagnosis, such as brain injury, dementia, motor neurone disease, Parkinson’s, or stroke
  • complex mental and physical health needs that require a high level of nursing input, observation, and monitoring
  • co-occurring mental health needs and behaviours of concern
  • co-occurring health needs such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, dysphagia, and epilepsy
  • clinical interventions such as catheters, enteral feeding, stomas, and complex wound care.

Care focuses on maintaining health, function, comfort, and meaningful involvement, with high levels of nursing oversight to identify and respond to changing clinical needs.

For people with progressive conditions, care can adapt through increasing frailty, palliative care, and end-of-life care.

Alma Unit is not yet open. Its profile will be developed in partnership with stakeholders and shaped by local demand.

To discuss a local need or opportunity, please contact our Referrals Team.
