Research

The research department routinely collects and analyses outcome data across all of our services. This ensures we are creating an evidence based culture in the agency where the emphasis is on using the best and most effective interventions with our clients.
We also provide a Floating Support Service for up to 50 clients which gives support to help people with mental ill-health problems remain within their own homes. This service continues to be busy with referrals and has proved to be an essential lifeline to those who depend on our support. This service is again monitored and inspected by Supporting People (NIHE).
