At CarePlus Healthcare+, our learning disability support in Greenwich is designed to help adults live as independently as possible while receiving the right level of care, guidance and practical support. We take a person-centred approach, tailoring support around each individual’s needs, goals, abilities, preferences and daily routines.
Our aim is to help people build confidence, develop independence and enjoy a fulfilling life in their own home and within their local community. Support is shaped around the individual rather than institutional routines, giving people greater choice, control and dignity in how their care is delivered.
Everyone deserves choice and control over their own life. We support adults with learning disabilities to build independence, look after their home and take part in the things that matter to them.
Support is planned with the person and, where they wish, with their family and other professionals, and it is reviewed as needs and goals change.
Practical support with everyday tasks so you can do more for yourself.
Support that is explained in a way that works for you.
Help with personal care where it is needed, always with respect for privacy.
Encouragement and support to take part in community life.
Depending on individual needs, our support can include:
We understand that everyone is different. That is why our learning disability support services in Greenwich are built around the person, with support plans reflecting individual circumstances, communication needs, preferences and aspirations.
Wherever possible, individuals are supported to make their own decisions and have control over how their support is organised. We work alongside individuals, families and relevant professionals to provide consistent, respectful and reliable support.
Our approach enables adults with learning disabilities to live in their own homes while accessing appropriate care and support. Housing and care arrangements remain separate, helping individuals retain their rights and responsibilities as tenants or homeowners and, wherever possible, have choice over who provides their support.
Whether someone needs support with everyday tasks, developing independent living skills or becoming more involved in their community, CarePlus Healthcare+ is committed to providing flexible learning disability support in Greenwich that promotes dignity, confidence, independence and quality of life.
We believe healthcare should go beyond assistance — it should provide comfort, dignity, and joy every single day. Our approach blends expert.

It starts before adulthood and has a lasting effect on development. Examples include Down's syndrome and some people with autism or cerebral palsy.
No. Conditions like dyslexia and ADHD are usually called learning difficulties. They affect how someone learns but don't affect overall intelligence. The terms are often confused, even though the support needed is different.
Mainly adults with learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs or physical disabilities who want more independence. The CQC listings above show this provider's stated specialisms.
It varies with your care plan. Typically it covers personal care, medication prompts, cooking, budgeting, accessing the community and getting to appointments. Support can be a few hours a week or round the clock.
Support is usually funded by the local authority after a needs assessment, or by NHS continuing healthcare or a personal budget. Rent is separate and often covered partly by Housing Benefit.
Ask your local council's adult social care team for a care needs assessment. You can also contact the provider directly.
Look the provider up on the CQC website, which shows registration and any inspection reports. Because this location is listed as not yet inspected, ask the provider about staff training, how they handle complaints, and for references from other families.
Start with the provider's complaints procedure, then the local council, and then the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman if it isn't resolved.
Do you want this as a formatted FAQ page for a website or leaflet? If so, tell me who it's for and which location it covers.
Usually through an assessment led by a psychologist or learning disability team, often after a GP or school referral. It looks at intellectual ability and everyday skills. Many people are diagnosed in childhood, but adults can be assessed too.
Yes, in most cases. Under the Mental Capacity Act 2005, everyone is assumed to have capacity unless shown otherwise. Capacity is judged for each specific decision, and people must be given support to decide. Where someone lacks capacity for a decision, others must act in their best interests.
Under the Equality Act 2010, services must adapt so people with learning disabilities can use them fairly. Examples are easy read information, longer appointments, a quiet waiting area and plain language.
Yes. Many live in their own homes with support, work (often with supported employment schemes), have families and take part fully in their communities. The right support depends on the person.
Warning signs include unexplained injuries, changes in mood or behaviour, withdrawal, missing money, and restrictions on contact with family or friends. Raise concerns with the provider, the council's safeguarding team and the CQC. In an emergency, call 999.
We support adults, older people, children and families across Greenwich and South East London.
