About Marchwood Close
Our service at Marchwood Close in Northampton supports adults with a learning disability, autistic adults and people with mental health needs in their own homes. Our support is given where people live, and the aim is a settled, ordinary life rather than a service that takes over. What that looks like depends entirely on the person. For one it may be help with cooking, shopping, laundry, bills and appointments. For another it may be support to use local transport, to get to a job or a college course, to join a club or to keep in touch with family. For someone else the important part is having staff who understand how they communicate, what they find overwhelming and how they like the day to be ordered. We spend time getting to know somebody before making plans, and we involve the people who know them best. Routines are respected, because a change that looks small to us can be a large thing for the person living it. When something does have to change we explain it properly and give people time. Our staff are trained in the particular ways each person needs to be supported, including communication and positive approaches when somebody is distressed, and we keep teams consistent. Please contact us if you would like to know more.
