Learning Disabilities Support
At Shalom Health & Social Care Ltd, we offer personalized care for adults with learning disabilities, aiming to promote independence and self-direction. We firmly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to lead a fulfilling life, which is why we provide compassionate one-on-one care to help individuals thrive.
We never adopt a one-size-fits-all approach. We understand that each person’s condition, circumstances, and preferences are unique. That’s why we work closely with individuals and their families to create a customized support plan that places the customer and their needs and goals at the core.
Parents, caregivers, and family members of individuals with learning disabilities can often feel overwhelmed while caring for their loved ones. If you’re uncertain about how to navigate your loved one’s condition or require additional support and guidance, our caregivers at Shalom Health & Social Care Ltd are ready to provide personalized and compassionate care.
Our team at Shalom Health & Social Care Ltd offers more than just physical support; we also provide emotional and social development support. Our caregivers become friends who listen to your loved one’s concerns and companions who share their interests.
Receiving learning disabilities support at home enables individuals to have control over their lives and make choices that might not be possible in structured environments, such as residential care. Supported living for adults with learning disabilities can greatly enhance their well-being, allowing them to remain in a familiar environment and stay close to friends and family.

What is a Learning Disability?
A learning disability involves reduced intellectual ability and difficulty with everyday tasks. The level of support required varies from person to person. For example, someone with a mild learning disability may only need support with activities such as socializing in the community or finding employment. On the other hand, an individual with a severe or profound learning disability may require full-time care.
For the 1.5 million people in the UK living with a learning disability, their daily lives are impacted in various ways. Many of them rely on their friends and family for support. However, with the dedicated care of learning disability caregivers, we make it possible for individuals and their families to navigate living with their condition.
