A Seamless Continuum of Care

The close working relationship between Terrance House and House 21 ensures continuity, familiarity and consistency throughout a person’s journey.

Many individuals begin at Terrance House, where they receive comprehensive residential support. As their needs evolve and their independence increases, they are supported to transition to House 21. This move is carefully planned and individually assessed to ensure safety, confidence and stability.

This progression model allows people to:

  • Develop independent living skills at a realistic pace
  • Maintain trusted relationships with staff
  • Experience reduced anxiety around change
  • Continue receiving structured support where required

Tailored Reablement Programmes

Reablement support at House 21 is person-centred and outcome-focused. Each support plan is designed around individual strengths, goals and aspirations.

We focus on building practical life skills, including:

  • Personal care and daily routines
  • Meal preparation and nutrition
  • Managing appointments and medication
  • Budgeting and financial awareness
  • Household responsibilities
  • Community engagement and travel confidence

Support is gradually adapted as individuals grow in confidence and capability.

Promoting Independence with Security

Supported living at House 21 provides the balance many people need. Residents have greater autonomy within their own accommodation, while still benefiting from structured, responsive support.

This approach enables individuals to:

  • Make everyday decisions independently
  • Strengthen social and community connections
  • Develop routines that reflect real-world living
  • Build long-term confidence in managing their own lives

Importantly, support remains available.
Independence is encouraged, not forced.

FAQs

What is the difference between residential care and supported living?

Residential care at Terrance House provides comprehensive, round-the-clock support within a structured care environment. Supported living at House 21 offers greater independence within a more autonomous setting, while still providing tailored daily support based on individual needs.

Who is suitable for reablement at House 21?

Individuals who have developed greater independence in residential care and are ready to build further life skills in a supported environment may be suitable. Each placement is assessed individually to ensure the move is appropriate and safe.

How does the transition from Terrance House to House 21 work?

Transitions are carefully planned and person-centred. The individual, their family and professionals are involved in the process. Support plans are reviewed, risk assessments completed, and a gradual introduction arranged to ensure continuity and stability.

Will support be reduced once someone moves to supported living?

Support is adjusted, not removed. The level of assistance reflects the individual’s current needs and goals. As independence grows, support can be gradually adapted to encourage continued development.

What reablement support is provided at House 21?

Support focuses on developing everyday living skills such as managing personal care, preparing meals, budgeting, attending appointments, maintaining a home and engaging with the local community.

Can someone move back to residential care if needed?

Because House 21 and Terrance House work closely together, care pathways can be reviewed if needs change. The priority is always the individual’s well-being and safety.

How do you measure progress towards independence?

Progress is monitored through regular support plan reviews, goal setting and outcome tracking. Achievements are discussed with the individual and, where appropriate, with family members and professionals.
