The Care

The care at Station Road is delivered by a dedicated and professional multi-disciplinary team committed to providing quality care focused on the needs of the residents. Our ratio of staff to service users ensures a supportive framework of care in which our residents can achieve their potential within a safe environment with dignity and respect. Station Road promotes Craegmoors’ communication strategy called “Your Voice” which ensures that each individual, based on their preferred method of communication, is able to have a voice on how their supported care is provided. Monthly service user meetings are held where individuals are able to represent the views and voices of fellow service users. This is extended to a voice at area, divisional and national level. Station Road liaises with families, community organisations, social services departments and purchasing authorities to support Person Centred Care Planning and ensures full account is taken of social, emotional, cultural and spiritual needs of all individuals.
