Lutterworth view, LE2, is a specialist residential service for adults where we support adults with learning disabilities and mental illness who may have dual diagnoses and associated complex needs.
The service has 8 en-suite bedrooms and provides twenty four hour support. All colleagues are NAPPI (Non Abusive Physical and Psychological Interventions) trained and use the NAPPI red and green scale to maintain positive influence on each service user, with a view to minimising the level and frequency of challenging behaviour. People we support may have spent long periods of time in a hospital setting or may have additional complex needs including sensory impairments and communication difficulties.
The service has two communal lounges, kitchen and dining areas and large outside space with a lawn area. There is a shared bathroom on the ground floor, as well as a shared bathroom upstairs in addition to the ensuite shower rooms. There are three downstairs room available for disabled access. People we support also have access to a quiet communal lounge where they can use a computer or enjoy watching films.
There are many opportunities for people we support to develop new skills; Leicester College, Freemen’s Park Campus, is just a short distance away and people we support are encouraged to take part in the running of the household including budgeting and shopping.
