About 1 Southdowns View
1 Southdowns View supports adults in their own homes in Heathfield and the surrounding part of East Sussex. We work with older people and with younger adults who need practical help to live the way they want to. What we do varies a great deal from one person to the next. For some it is a short call in the morning to help with washing, dressing, medicines and breakfast, and another look in later in the day. For others it is fuller support across the day, taking in meals, the household, shopping and getting out and about. For younger adults it is often about developing the practical skills that independent living asks for, from cooking and budgeting to managing appointments and travelling confidently, and there our aim is to be needed less as time goes on. We agree the support with the person first and, where they want it, with their family. We ask what they would rather do themselves, what they find hard to ask for and who we should contact if we are worried, and we look at that plan again whenever life changes. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. The things that keep us there are simple and easily lost, mainly turning up when we said we would, sending people who already know you, and training our staff properly before they start.
