In Home Supervision

In Home Supervision

Our 24/7 in-home supervision offers an alternative approach for assessing parents' ability to provide for and protect their children while remaining in their own homes.

This level of supervision takes place in the family's natural environment and provides additional safeguards beyond those typically found in community-based assessments.

With our family practitioners providing constant observation and support, we can ensure a high level of protection and risk management. They keep a detailed daily record log of their observations, including any interventions and safeguarding concerns.

The benefits of this approach are significant. It creates emotional stability and reduces the risk of multiple placement moves for both parent and child. By allowing the child to remain in the care of their parent, it also minimizes the stress associated with separation. This, in turn, promotes emotional well-being and engagement with key professionals and services.

Moreover, it enables families to access their local community resources with the continuity of support from their local professionals and services. Living at home also reduces distractions and allows parents to focus solely on meeting the care needs of their child.

Our 24/7 in-home supervision provides a seamless approach that enables all assessment work to be done within the family's natural environment. This approach is supported by a qualified independent social worker (ISW) who assesses the family based on first-hand evidence provided by the family practitioners' direct and full-time supervision, providing the best quality evidence.
