Flexible and Responsive Support

At Sunrise Rehabilitation Centre, our Floating Support services are designed to provide flexible and responsive assistance to individuals with complex mental health needs and learning disabilities. This service is ideal for those who require short-term or intermittent support to navigate various challenges and achieve their personal goals while living independently.


What is Floating Support?

Floating Support is a community-based service that offers tailored support to individuals in their own homes or in the community. Unlike traditional domiciliary care, Floating Support is not tied to a specific location and can be adapted to meet the changing needs of our clients. This service is particularly beneficial for those who need help with specific tasks or during transitional periods.


Personalised Support Plans

We understand that each person has unique needs and goals. Our team works closely with clients, their families, and healthcare professionals to develop personalised support plans that address individual requirements. These plans are regularly reviewed and updated to ensure that the support provided is effective and relevant.
