About Nexus Support
We are Nexus Support, working from Wickford to support adults in their own homes and in the community across this part of Essex. Our work is with adults who have learning disabilities and autistic adults, with people who have physical disabilities, with people who have a visual or hearing impairment, and with younger adults who want help to live independently. The point of what we do is not to take charge of somebody's life but to make the life they want workable, so we begin with what a person wants their week to look like and work back to the support that would make it possible. In practice that might mean help with personal care, medication, cooking, shopping, managing money and appointments, or support to get to work, college, a gym or a regular group. Communication is central: how somebody prefers to be given information, and how they let us know what they want, is the basis of everything else rather than a detail to be settled later. Where change is difficult, we keep to a predictable routine and prepare properly for anything out of the ordinary. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about support.
