Our Facilities for Learning Disabilities

St Andrew's Healthcare provides Learning Disability Services across three sites: Northampton, Essex and Birmingham (opening March 2009).

Access to a wide range of activities and facilities are available, including a multi-gym, heated indoor swimming pool, primary care suite, hairdresser, café, library, adult education, creative and vocational therapies, sport and a multi-denominational chapel and multi faith prayer room.
 

In addition to clinical support, we have recently formed a partnership with Workbridge, a community rehabilitation charity that focuses on integrating work skills into treatment and care. This can be conducted outside or within the clinical area and encourages independence and vocational training.
