Successful candidates will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check.
Cygnet has been providing a national network of high-quality specialist mental health services for more than 37 years. In this role you’ll have the chance to make a real impact on patients, service users & their families.
On site we have our multi-disciplinary team (MDT) who assist and support us to provide outcome based care and support pathways. The integrated MDT consists of psychiatry, psychology, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy. The team supports the development of daily living skills and reduction in maladaptive behaviours.
Broughton House is divided into five living areas, designed to support individuals within smaller environments. The main building accommodates nine individuals, while both the Coach House and The Flat each provide space for four individuals. Additionally, two separate properties on-site, Sutton House and Sandbeck House, are each arranged for six individuals.
Each placement within Broughton House offers the people we support individualised living spaces, creating an environment that will support them for moving along their care pathway to more independent living. As part of their pathway, we enable people to build their skills to help them achieve the things they want out of life. Set in a beautiful rural location, the service has plenty of outdoor space for individuals to enjoy, including countryside walks that help support those who are anxious in crowded spaces. The individuals we support can gain skills through extended learning on ASDAN courses.
Our staff use least restrictive practice approaches and are trained in specialised safety intervention techniques and sensory integration strategies.
