Choice Care Goup to Open New Home in Bitterne

Specialist care provider Choice Care Group is preparing to open a new home for individuals with a mental health disorder or complex needs in Bitterne, Southampton.

Chesham House on West End Road is set on a quiet, tree lined street with generous sized rooms. It will provide support and therapeutic input to eight service users as they move on from hospital and continue in their rehabilitation and settle back in to community living.  

Chesham House is close to local shops, amenities and employment opportunities. Bitterne Leisure Centre which provides a swimming pool, gym and a host of other activities is only five minutes away.

Choice Care Group’s director of referrals and new projects, Tracy Bridgman says, “The emphasis of the support provided here will be on rehabilitation and recovery so as to enable our service users to continue to progress through their care pathway”

“The ultimate aim is for our service users to live as independently as possible, perhaps with a package of support provided by our supported living provider, Excel Support Services.”

The new home is expected to be fully operational by the end of summer and is currently recruiting for new members of staff. Jon Bartlett, newly appointed Home Manager, will be running the operations.

Choice Care Group provides support to 304 individuals aged 16 and over who have a learning disability, mental health disorder and complex needs at 39 homes across Berkshire, Wiltshire, Hampshire and Gloucestershire.
