In the case of assessments, our team specialise in entering a home at a difficult time and engaging with a family who may be in crisis. By providing a compassionate human face while gathering information, they help to put families at ease.

Throughout each assessment, our team are transparent, process driven, innovative and open to feedback to ensure the best outcomes for you and the family you are caring for.

Following an assessment, the evidence is reviewed to ensure the needs of the child are met and that we are confident in the long term stability of the placement. Our desire – like yours – is to provide children with safe families and home, from childhood to adulthood.

The outcomes, reports, recommendations and plans that we make are realistic and designed to assist you to confidently make informed decisions. 

In order to ensure high quality assessment reports in every instance, we work within a comprehensive QA framework. This ensures that each report is reviewed objectively by a member of our senior clinical team prior to being delivered to you.
