About this home

Thoughtfully designed homes for independent living

Situated at the heart of a residential community approximately three miles from the centre of Sheffield, Woodview is a purpose-built residential home offering support and accommodation for up to nine adults with profound learning disabilities. It has good public transport connections to the city centre and is close to excellent shopping amenities.

A very special feature of Woodview is the Hydrotherapy Pool. This is available to people we support and has adapted hoisting facilities in both the changing rooms and the pool itself.

Woodview has good professional working relationships with the community learning disability team and local health providers in order to provide people with the best wellbeing possible and ensure their needs are met. We want all those we support and their families to feel safe, happy, and secure in the knowledge that they have a warm and welcoming home that will do everything it can for them to make the most out of life.

What we offer

A safe and supportive place to call home

Being purpose-built, Woodview offers extremely high-quality facilities. The house has individually decorated bedrooms that reflect the personality of people supported. There are overhead hoists in bedrooms and bathrooms, allowing easy access to bathing facilities.

The home also has large and airy communal areas, including an attractive lounge and dining room. Externally, the home has a secure and secluded patio area, which is attached to an exceptional sensory garden containing several planters.

A special feature of the home is the Hydrotherapy Pool. This is available to those we support and has adapted hoisting facilities in both the changing rooms and the pool itself. The water is maintained at 34℃, so bathers will always feel totally comfortable in the water.

There are four shower areas with wheelchair access, and three of the showers have overhead tracking. The pool offers a unique experience for people we support and significantly contributes to the therapeutic and sensory quality of the care we deliver.

Lifestyle

We encourage those we support, regardless of their ability, to lead as fulfilling and busy a life as possible. Our activities are geared to the interests and preferences of those we support within the home or the community. To enable a wide range of trips out, the home has a dedicated minibus that has been adapted specifically to meet people’s needs.

Support plans are developed to reflect not only a person’s individual needs but also their personalities, likes and wishes. In producing these plans, we encourage the involvement of relatives and friends and enjoy close contact with families, very often developing lasting relationships with relatives.

Supporting people to maintain important relationships is key to enhancing wellbeing, and so we are happy to support people back to their family/friends’ homes for a special event or simply just to pop home for a cuppa.

The highlight of this approach often enables group events such as Christmas parties or Summer BBQs, where people we support are joined by family and friends for great entertainment, good food and a warm and loving atmosphere.
