Rehabilitation
At Thistle Hill Hall we aim to provide rehabilitation and skills training to its residents to facilitate and encourage a positive move to live within supported accommodation or independently within the community. We are committed in providing opportunities and experiences that will develop residents practical skills, education and knowledge and improve upon their existing level of ability. We at Thistle Hill Hall are offering a two stage rehabilitation process process that will focus upon skills traing in:-

• Practical skills development in relation to the management of personal environments and the maintenance of a tenancy.

• Personal Safety and vulnerability.

• Personal budgeting & effective financial management.

• The development of trusting relationships.

• The development of personal coping strategies and mechanisms.

• Relaxation techniques to reduce stress and anxiety.

In addition to these areas we have developed two studio apartments that enable residents, who have been assessed as being able to develop their independence skills, to live a more independent lifestyle.

We have available within the home two training kitchens equipped with modern appliances which can be used as part of an individual's independant living assessment and rehabilitation programme.
