Wrixon Youth Care - examples of our youth care cases
Teenage care and care for older children
We focus on enabling young people to achieve success in their family relationship, be on track scholastically and to have socially acceptable behaviours
Our care services are wide ranging. We are flexible and are open to discuss your needs and requirements. Our priority is happy, relaxed children. The examples below show the type of care services we provide:
Full time care
Adolescent A lives in London, has a learning disability. Our carer stays at the family home from Monday to Friday night to take and collect the young person to and from school and assist in their care during the evenings. This enables his mother, a single parent, to manage to hold a full time job and continue to care for her son in the family home.
Part time care
Example 1 - Adolescent B lives in Hertfordshire with his working parents. He is currently excluded from school due to behavioural problems and alcohol abuse. Our youth carer provides all that is needed to ensure that he continues to receive educational and social exposure with the help of our experienced staff.
Part time care is all that is needed to ensure adolescent B maintains the stable environment that he needs.
Example 2 - Adolescent C lives with his mother in the city with his mother who has a demanding job. The 6 week summer holidays have arrived and we are employed to care from 8am to 6pm, 5 days a week. Activities include ensuring breakfast is taken, then on to a planned schedule including museum trips, concerts, football in the park, open-air bus tours etc. Where budgets restrict we opt for free activities in the planned schedule.
Parent/s will be consulted from the outset when planning activities and agreeing budgets.
Example 3 - Parent/s may have a weekend home that is rarely used due to the worry of leaving teens at home alone. Wrixon youth care can pay morning and afternoon visits to the family home to ensure all is safe and well and put the parent/s mind at rest.
Holiday relief
We can provide total care for your teenage children whilst you take a well-earned break. In providing live-in care services, we aim to 'replace' you for the time that you are away. As qualified and experienced carers, we can provide all that is needed to run the home in your absence.
Weekend respite
Example 1 - Adolescent D suffers from ADHD. Although his parents are devoted to him, his behavior is wearing. They recognise that they need time to themselves as a couple. They want time and space once a month. We are able to provide a regular carer to take the young person out over the week end and care for him should his parents plan time away.
Example 2 - Her parents devote their lives to her care, and consequently they need some time to themselves to relax and recharge. We offer a stand-in service to care for your youth or teenage child.
