Health
Living in houses situated firmly in the community, everybody who lives at King Street is supported in accessing all community services, including:
- General Practitioner
- Dentist
- Chiropodist
- Optician
Each person has a medical assessment when they come to live with us, followed by annual checkups. They are also registered with the local GP and have a Health Action Plan, while full medical records are kept and maintained. Additional and/or specialist support can be accessed as required, for example in relation to epilepsy or specific nutritional needs.
People are encouraged to lead a balanced lifestyle and are supported in choosing and preparing meals that are healthy and nutritious - and in taking regular exercise.
