At Trinity House, we are aware further assessments of elements of the service user's needs are required, to ensure that the care we are providing is relevant to helping the resident achieve their full potential. Every service user has access to their plan and is encouraged to participate as fully as possible in the care planning process. This ensures that the best possible long-term outcome is achieved for each service user and if there are signs of relapse we are to revisit these areas.
