At Major Healthcare, we provide safe, compassionate and person-centred care and support for children and young people with a wide range of assessed care and support needs, including complex needs.
Every package of care and support is built around the individual, their assessed needs, routines, preferences, communication style and desired outcomes.
Whether support is provided in the family home, a residential or short-break setting or another appropriate community setting, our team delivers child-centred, trauma-informed and safeguarding-led care. We focus on each child’s individual needs, emotional wellbeing, safety and desired outcomes, ensuring support is responsive, consistent and tailored to what matters most to them.
