Inspire Care Outreach Limited

Inspire Care was born out of a genuine drive and desire to support the most vulnerable young people in the community to find their rightful place in society. We understand and believe that the work we undertake now can have a profound and enhancing effect on a young person’s future, their safety and their fulfilment in living and participating in the community. We will achieve this through the quality of relationship, professionalism of our work and continuing quality assurance reflective practices backed by a team of professionals and partnership with local authorities. We provide services to those living in the community with no family or support networks, who may be living in the community alone for the first time, and those who may be at significant risk. We also use person centred approach to meet the needs of our young people.

Support Worker

Independence-Development Ltd

In my last work placement I was looking after a young person who had underlying mental health issues and was a frequent self-harmer who was on 1-1 Eyesight 24/7 unless in their room. Which then would change to 5min-observations checkups. on my checkup the service user had tried to ligature themselves with a bit of string from their tracksuit bottoms.

(thankfully our office was nearby) I shouted to my colleague to get the scissors and to come and assist. I had to struggle with the service user, unable to get the scissors to cut through, and at one point I called my colleague to call the ambulance. While they were on the phone, I cut it loose and I then sat there by the door making sure they were okay and recover like normal. (There was a multi-agency agreement out that stated we could not have an ambulance on site unless it was life threatening.)

Once myself and the ambulance team on the phone agreed they were now okay and that we just needed to change our plan temporarily to 1-1 eyesight in their room. That night I got a lot of abuse, and the service user kept saying that they would repeatedly self harm until the ambulance had to be called out. Thankfully, they never did.
