Younger Adults Mental Health

The Limes at Cedar Lodge

Notaro Care Homes are proud and delighted to have entered into a pilot scheme in conjunction with Somerset County Council (Community Directorate) and NHS Foundation Trust (Somerset Partnership) to provide residential rehabilitation for adults of working age with a mental health diagnosis. The scheme aims to deliver high quality specialised services for people who do not need nursing care but require a high degree of individualised guidance and supervision. The guidance and supervision are designed to help the people supported achieve greater independence.

The residential rehabilitation scheme offers:

• Consistency in the way people are assessed for placements to ensure the same procedures are used to enable prompt access to the required information
• Guidelines to create safe and inspiring environments specifically designed for the residents
• A method of support and partnership for residents, carers, families and friends, providers and professionals
• The promotion of positive images of living with mental health in adult life

The scheme is to be service user lead.

"Service users are each to have the opportunity to choose how they wish to live their individual life and are supported to do this by people they choose, within a safe and secure comfortable living environment.  The environment will be non-restrictive so as to allow the service user to grow and develop to their full potential."
