About the Project
Adferiad Ceredigion Supported Living Service (SLS) is a Registered Domiciliary Care Service providing Specialist Mental Health support across the county of Ceredigion to assist people with a serious mental illness to continue living in their own homes. Supported Living Service support focuses on enabling Service Users to maximise their independence. We provide support in areas such as daily living activities, other practical tasks, compliance with medication, and developing coping strategies. We also encourage service users to interact with their communities and interests by increasing their confidence and skills to carry out these activities and tasks for themselves.
Who do we support?
We offer support to adults (18 years of age and above) across the County of Ceredigion. The SLS Project provides community-based person-centred Supported Living Services to service users who have a Serious Mental Illness.
How do we do it?
Adferiad’s SLS Team provide support to help individuals with the following:
- Attending appointments
- Volunteering – with the aim of creating meaningful occupation and community involvement
- Finance – such as paying bills
- Interacting with the community – to encourage and enable clients to feel part of the community (by reducing isolation and building resilience)
- Building up friendships with their peers
- Attending groups like art and music and exploring new avenues of opportunities
- Work on IDLS (Independent Daily Living Skills)
- Signpost to other services when needed
