We understand the importance of matching and group dynamics, and we make sure any new placement has minimal impact on the children already living at HBBA. No placement is offered until a comprehensive pre admission impact risk assessment has been carried out.
An enquiry can only be made via HBBA. We request referral documents and any additional information that might be relevant.
We respond within two working days, and a pre assessment meeting with the young person is arranged promptly, where appropriate.
Any further information is gathered, and inclusion and exclusion criteria are reviewed against the child’s needs.
Where relevant, a professionals meeting is arranged to bring the right people together.
For a suitable, matched placement, the Service Level Agreement is signed and funding arrangements are put in place.
The young person visits HBBA, and a planned admission date is agreed together.
From the moment they arrive, our team begins planning for the young person’s future.
HBBA is equipped to manage emergency placements. All decisions on an emergency admission are made by the Registered Manager, with the aim of making every child feel welcomed and supported through what is often a difficult transition.
Children aged 7 to 15 with learning disabilities and associated complex needs, including autism, ADHD related difficulties, sensory needs, communication difficulties and behaviour that may challenge. Related staff training is identified and put in place during the transition period for every referral.
Send us your referral documents or get in touch to discuss a potential placement.
