The new units,en-suite bathrooms and design
January 30, 2008
In the new units each bedroom will have an ensuite bathroom, but the rooms have been designed so that if the young person using the room did not have the skills to use the bathroom , or be left in charge of it without supervision, the bathroom can be locked off. This makes the bedrooms more adaptable to young people with a variety of needs. Although the new short break unit will have 12 beds, just like Broom Court, the accommodation will be much more accessible and suitable for the disabled children and young people using it, and will help them to gain skills and independence not possible within Broom Court.
