Referrals

While we understand the importance of accommodating emergency referrals, our primary focus is on providing the best possible support to young people. To achieve this, we offer a carefully planned transitional service that fosters engagement between young people and our staff. Prior to their move, young people are introduced to the staff and visit their new home. Throughout the transition period, we encourage young people to actively participate in personalising their room.

Before placing a young person, we conduct assessments to ensure suitability and determine the level of support required for a successful transition to independent living. We welcome both short and long-term placements for young people, taking into consideration their individual needs and goals.

Making a referral

Please ensure all relevant details are included, such as the client’s medical history, current medications, any known allergies, and any other pertinent information that may impact their support. It is also important to specify the reason for the referral, including any specific services or specialists that are being requested

Having thoroughly completed referrals is essential during the referral stages as it helps determine the suitability of a placement. This not only saves time and eliminates the need for additional questions but also enables us to propose a comprehensive package of support that best addresses the specific needs of the young person. Understanding their needs, concerns, and requirements is crucial for us to provide the best support possible. Therefore, including as much information as possible within the referral document allows us to tailor our services accordingly.

Please note:- The inclusion of the young persons views and wishes are highly important when completing the referral form, and we request that all professionals actively communicate with the young person in question to have their comments added.

Each referral will be assessed and scrutinised thoroughly against our matching process and a comprehensive support plan will be developed by Twmpath prior to placement if the placement is excepted.

We appreciate your attention to detail and diligence in completing referrals to the highest standard. Thank you for your co-operation and ongoing dedication to the well-being of our young people.
