Moreways Healthcare
From your initial enquiry through to moving into one of our supported living services, our experienced referrals team works closely with individuals, families, Local Authorities, NHS services and healthcare professionals to ensure every placement is carefully assessed, safely planned and centred around achieving positive long-term outcomes.
Your Journey
Every referral is unique. Our application process has therefore been designed to remain flexible whilst ensuring every placement is clinically appropriate, safe and capable of supporting long-term independence and wellbeing.
Throughout each stage we maintain close communication with commissioners, clinicians, social workers, family members and the individual themselves, ensuring everyone remains informed from referral through to admission.
Every assessment considers the person’s goals, strengths, risks and aspirations before any placement decision is made.
We work alongside Local Authorities, NHS professionals and families to create safe and sustainable placements.
We explain each stage clearly, including funding arrangements, assessments and expected timescales.
Our objective is to create a pathway towards independence rather than simply providing accommodation.
Application Journey
Although every referral differs slightly, the overall pathway follows the same carefully managed journey to ensure safe decision making, effective planning and successful transitions into supported living.
Discuss the referral with our team, explore suitability and receive guidance regarding funding and next steps.
Clinical reports, risk information, support needs and compatibility are reviewed by our experienced team.
Working together with professionals and families, we develop a safe transition plan before admission.
Support begins immediately following admission with regular reviews to monitor progress and outcomes.
Funding & Referrals
Funding arrangements differ for every individual. Whether support is arranged through a Local Authority, NHS organisation, Personal Budget or Direct Payment, our experienced team will guide you through every stage whilst working closely with commissioners and healthcare professionals throughout the referral process.
Following a Care Act assessment, eligible individuals may receive a Personal Budget to meet assessed care and support needs whilst promoting greater independence, flexibility and personal choice.
Some individuals choose to receive funding directly, enabling them to select providers and tailor support arrangements around their own goals, preferences and lifestyle.
Many placements are commissioned directly by Local Authorities, NHS Trusts or Integrated Care Boards following assessment, approval and collaborative transition planning.
