THE OAKS
Malvern
The Oaks is a residential home for adults who have learning disabilities and complex needs, including behaviours that may challenge, autism and other associated issues. The main home has accommodation for up to 9 people.
There is also a separate ground floor apartment with its own facilities for two people. The ground floor apartment is suitable for those who prefer to live in a smaller setting while still benefitting from the intensive support required to meet their needs.
We believe that anyone living at The Oaks should have the same care and opportunities as they would in their own home. That’s why we recognise, respect and support individuality, encouraging people to take as much control of their lives and decision making as they can, while offering care, support and guidance.
Our specialist team are experts in person-centred assistance and our range of services and strategies can help individuals to manage complex behaviours effectively.
All staff working at the service undertake accredited Positive Behaviour Support training.
Individualised support
Support at The Oaks is precisely tailored to the needs and wishes of the individual. We try to achieve not only what is important for someone but also what is important to him or her. This holistic approach is very person-centred and promotes positive outcomes and development of skills for life and leisure.
We work with individuals, and those significant in their lives, to set - and achieve - short, medium, and long term goals. These change over time, so our support plans are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary.
"The Oaks is a very nice residential setting, one of the nicest ones I know."

John was supported out for a walk in his wheelchair, this is a very good achievement for John as he can be anxious about being pushed in his wheelchair. He managed very well though.
📮 He wanted a photo next to a post box because his favourite colour is red. The postbox is by the train station, where he used to visit a lot when he was more mobile and his enjoyable visit to the local shop for chocolate bars ☺️
