Care in the Community
The Eleventh Hour Group community team is a service available 24 hours a day to support service users in any community setting throughout England and Wales. We specialise in providing support on a last-minute basis and then can continue with a consistent team of staff for as long as needed. Eleventh Hour Group supports local councils, social services, hospital discharges, domiciliary care, private clients, and companies.
All community services supplied by us are overseen by our Clinical lead who is a registered nurse with a breadth of experience in all areas of community provision.
Services for Adults
Individuals with learning disabilities can be supported in their own homes, supported living accommodation and holiday breaks. Eleventh Hour Group staff are specially trained and experienced to support individuals with these needs. Always looking to include the individual in all decision making as much as possible and promote independence. Support can range from full care requirements to support with accessing community activities.
Individuals with a condition that causes them to have physical disabilities, for example MD, MS, PD, ABI can be supported in their own homes, and on holiday breaks. Depending on the needs of the individual, Eleventh Hour Group would provide specially trained and experienced registered nurses or carers to support such individuals with their needs. This support can be 24 hours a day or other requirements involving full care or to support accessing community activities. Promoting independence where possible is always the main aim, as well as ensuring a person’s dignity is maintained.
Individuals requiring support due to their mental health can be supported by qualified nurses and/or support workers who are specialists in that field. Nurses can support with therapeutic interventions if required, and work with support workers to enable individuals to remain safe whilst promoting independence.

Services for Children

Our staff are specially trained and experienced to support children with these needs. This support ranges from full care requirements to support with accessing community activities.
Children requiring support due to their mental health or other conditions, for example Autistic Spectrum Disorder, can be supported by qualified nurses and/or support workers who are specialists in that field.

Families requiring additional support due to ‘Child in Need’ or ‘Child Protection’ orders, can be assisted by support workers to help children remain in their own home safely. Daily reporting is provided by staff to ensure that professionals involved are kept abreast of all situations. All staff are experienced and trained in supporting children and aware of safeguarding.
