About Dimensions 40 Cody Road
Dimensions 40 Cody Road is a small residential care home in Farnborough, Hampshire, supporting adults with a learning disability or autism. We also offer respite care for planned short stays. Being small is the point. It means the people who live here are known properly by a settled team, the house stays calm enough for those who need calm, and support can be shaped around individuals rather than around a rota. Everyone has their own room and their own things, and the day runs the way the people living here want it to run. We work on the ordinary business of an adult life. Cooking a meal you chose, doing the shopping, keeping your room how you like it, managing money and appointments, getting to college or work, seeing friends and family, and getting out locally when you feel like it. Where somebody wants to take something on for themselves we support that, even when it takes far longer than doing it for them would. How we communicate matters as much as what we do. We adapt to the person, whether that means signing, symbols, pictures, plain speech, extra time or a quieter room, because being properly understood is where everything else starts. We pay close attention to the environment too, since noise, pace and predictability often matter more than words. Support is agreed with each person and with anyone they want involved, written in a form they can understand, and reviewed honestly. If you are looking into a place or a short stay, please contact us.
