Working with you to place the right service user in the right home.

We know your time is limited and your caseload is busy. We've designed our referral, assessment, and ongoing management processes around that fact, so partnering with Diverse Services takes work off your desk, not adds it.

Our service promise to professionals

Six things you can expect from us, every time.

24h

24 hour response

A written assessment outcome, with clear reasoning whether the answer is yes or no, within 24 hours of receiving a complete referral.

Single named contact

Your referral isn't handed down a chain. Our Business Development team handles initial enquiries directly and routes you straight to the relevant Service Manager.

We attend MDT care reviews

Diverse Services is a true partner, not a passive accommodation provider. We attend MDT care reviews under the Community Mental Health Framework, share digital records with consent, and contribute to support decisions.

Step up & step down

If a placement needs more or less support, we adjust within our own pathway, keeping the same keyworker and the same home where appropriate.

!

Real time incident reports

Safeguarding and serious incidents reported within agreed timeframes, in the format that fits your reporting cycle, not ours.

Honest when we can't help

If we can't safely meet a service user's needs, we'll say so on day one, with a clear rationale, rather than accept and break the placement later.

The journey to independence.

Every resident is on a path. We meet people where they are, often at the most difficult point, and walk with them step by step toward independent living.

Where we meet you

Hospital or crisis

Coming out of an acute mental health ward, secure setting, or a placement that broke down.

High support

24 hour staffed home

Awake staff every shift, full team support, daily keyworker support. Most residents start here.

Medium support

Daytime support, 9 to 5

Step down when overnight cover is no longer needed. Same home, same keyworker.

Low support

Diverse studio flat

Step down into one of our own studio flats. Same trusted team, less intensive support. The relationship continues , we don't hand you off to another provider.

Goal

Full independence

Living independently with the confidence and skills to stay there. For many, this also means moving into employment. This is the point of everything we do.

Step up and step down within the journey, whenever appropriate. The keyworker and the home stay the same where possible.

How we work with statutory teams

A team that genuinely supports.

Multidisciplinary team in house

Psychology Lead, Assistant Psychologists, Nutritionist, and trained support workers all sit within a single management structure, not a patchwork of subcontractors. Decisions are made internally and quickly.

Strengths based formulation

Every support plan is built around abilities, interests, and aspirations, not just diagnoses. Co produced with the resident, reviewed monthly with their keyworker.

Outcome measures we share

Stability, social connectedness, life skills, and pathway progress, measured against the agreed care package and reported on a predictable cadence.

Digital records

Support plans, daily logs, incident reports, and medication records all online. Auditable, searchable, and accessible to commissioners and care co ordinators with consent, not paper folders in a cupboard.

De escalation before escalation

24 hour awake staffing plus an on call duty manager means situations are managed in house wherever safe. The result: fewer A&E attendances, fewer crisis admissions.

Mental Capacity Act & safeguarding

All frontline staff complete mandatory training in MCA, safeguarding of vulnerable adults, DoLS, Mental Health Act, and trauma informed practice. We rehearse it, not just attend it.
