Learning Disabilities
Specialist Support for Adults with Learning Disabilities
At AESN Care, we provide personalised, respectful support to adults with learning disabilities (LD) — empowering each person to live with confidence, purpose, and dignity.
Whether someone needs daily support in their own home or full-time care in a supported living placement, our services are shaped entirely around the individual. We take the time to understand their goals, routines, and communication style — and build care plans that truly reflect their life and aspirations.
We understand the complexity and sensitivity involved in supporting people with LD — which is why we invest heavily in our team’s training, development, and supervision.
Our staff receive regular, specialist training in:
- Understanding learning disabilities
- Positive behaviour support (PBS)
- Non-verbal and alternative communication methods (e.g. PECS, Makaton)
- Person-centred care planning
- Safeguarding adults
- Risk assessment and de-escalation
- Equality, diversity and inclusion
Each member of our care team is DBS-checked, supervised regularly, and supported to grow in confidence and skill — so the people we support receive consistent, high-quality care.
