Schankin House

Schankin House’, which provides accommodation and a continuity of personal care and support for young adults up until their 40th birthday. ‘Schankin House’ is a celebration of our first resident who attained their 18th birthday and transitioned to the new home to commence his journey into supported living services. The identified young adults will be those of either gender and all ethnicities who are diagnosed as having mild to moderate learning difficulties or other associated complex needs i.e., social and communication defects, autism, cerebral palsy or epilepsy. Through pathway planning, young people who are identified as suitable to transition to Schankin house will be provided with a smooth transition plan and introduction to our semi-independence support services, the emphasis of their transition will be the consistency and continuity of care. The Vine Residential services works in partnership with local authorities.

Young adults accommodated at Schankin House are supported 1:1 through a robust care planning process, as part of every young person’s pathway planning arrangement. The level of care support and their independence ability is assessed and matched with the appropriate staffing support at Schankin House.
