Supported Accommodation Procedures

tri.x Understands Supported Accommodation

Supported accommodation services are crucial in providing care and support for young people aged 16 to 25, particularly those leaving care. They often face unique challenges in securing safe and stable living environments, lacking the necessary resources to transition to independent living. Supported accommodation ensures a nurturing and secure environment, helping these individuals gain stability, confidence, and life skills.

New Regulations and Quality Standards
In March and October 2023, the Supported Accommodation (England) Regulations were enacted, prohibiting the accommodation of relevant 16- and 17-year-olds in non-Ofsted-registered settings. These regulations ensure higher care standards, requiring safe and supportive environments for vulnerable young people. Providers must adhere to strict quality standards, maintaining secure environments, offering tailored support, and ensuring adequately trained staff. Our procedures can help you to adhere to these new standards.

tri.x Solutions:
To help providers align with these new regulations while maintaining the highest care standards, tri.x has developed comprehensive procedures and guidance through our:

  • Supported Accommodation Manual:

Madeline Jones, Learning & Development Officer St. Helens Borough Council

The Adult Care Providers Handbook is an incredibly valuable resource that can be accessed by managers or care workers to provide instant or deep information on any subject in health and social care. It has been incredible to be working with tri.x and with people who are as passionate as us. To meet a team and organisation who are likeminded, at the same level as us in terms of quality, and who also want projects to thrive has been so inspiring.

We had excellent feedback from Ofsted, who said our documents and policy section was outstanding and thank you to the tri.x team for all your work on this.

Derby City Supported Accommodation

tri.x’s approach as a company is to be responsive to the customers who use the manuals and ensure it ultimately meets their needs. Foster carers have found the manual to be hugely beneficial and find it to be a useful resource tool to support vulnerable children in their care.

Derby City, Local Authority Children’s Services

It has been an absolute pleasure working in partnership with tri.x to develop our Gateshead Safeguarding Adults Board Multi-Agency Policy and Procedures. The tri.x team demonstrated a wealth of knowledge and experience in Adult Safeguarding and was able to provide us with an impressive foundation that was statutorily compliant and highlighted national guidance and best practices. We were then able to shape our policy and procedures to ensure they truly represented our local values, structures, and operational practices.

Carole Paz-Uceira, Safeguarding Adults Business Manager Gateshead Council

tri.x has been extremely supportive and flexible in terms of meeting our needs and providing a service that is fit for purpose. Our main point of contact has been extremely friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to achieve a solution for our business. We are extremely happy with what has been achieved.
