About Croft Cottage

Croft Cottage provides a small homely environment for seven adults with complex epilepsy, associated impairments and learning disability. It is a Community based unit located close to the main E.S centre. Many of its clients have made the transition from children’s to adult services and all require a flexible package of ‘care and support’ to encourage and enable them to realise and maintain their ‘adult’ potential.

All the bedrooms in Croft Cottage have their own en-suite bathroom facilities, each with an alarm call system. Rooms are provided as furnished but individuals are encouraged to personalise them and furniture provided can be stored. If preferred our Occupational Therapy service can provide advice and assistance to individuals, in securing aids and adaptations, following assessment of the living environment, where appropriate. One of the bedrooms and the communal bathroom are fitted with an overhead hoist.

Croft Cottage has its own transport, which is regularly used to facilitate the clients’ access to and participation in the wider community. 

 

Steps

Our supported living service is available to adults with epilepsy who may also have other associated or additional complications. The service provides people with the opportunity to live with greater autonomy and independence in the community.

Micholls House

Micholls House is all about individualised care and empowerment. Residents are encouraged to be involved in all decisions about their lives - what they choose to eat each day, what they wear, what activities they take part in, what trips they go on and whether they choose to use our on-site health services or their own.

Queen Elizabeth House

Our specialist nursing care for adults with epilepsy is provided in Queen Elizabeth House at our Chalfont Centre in Buckinghamshire. In addition to their epilepsy, residents often have associated and additional complications, including physical and learning disabilities, brain injury and autism.
