Beech House

The home is part of a growing range of flexible services provided by Potens aimed at children and young people with varying degrees of disabilities.

The home is situated on the on the outskirts of Weymouth, Dorset with easy access to the main routes in and out of Weymouth.
The accommodation has been a bespoke design around the needs of a child with complex needs up to the age of 18.

Beech House has been carefully adapted to provide specialist accommodation for children and young people with moderate to severe learning difficulties, Autism, ADHD and associated behavioural challenges, children accommodated at the home may also present as socially and emotionally delayed through neglect and harm. The team has undergone specialist training in using the PACE approach which included consultation and training sessions with a consultant.

We will work with children and young people to support them in all aspects of their care, working towards agreed targets which are set to focus the personal development of children in areas which present barriers to enable successful transitions into adulthood and or a move into the community.

A lot of emphasis is put on the children having fun and enjoying life to the maximum, with activities planned around their individual needs. We pride ourselves in maintaining relationships and working closely with parents/carers, and welcome ideas and involvement.
The staff team support parents/carers to develop a sound understanding of each aspect of the child’s individual needs. As part of our commitment to providing high quality services, we will constantly strive to meet targets that improve outcomes for children and young people.
