WHO WE ARE
At Unicare, we are more than a care provider—we are a partner in long-term outcomes.
Our services are designed to support individuals with:
• Autism and neurodevelopmental conditions
• Learning disabilities
• Mental health needs
• Complex behavioural presentations

We are a CQC-regulated provider, delivering both personal care and treatment of disease, disorder, or injury, ensuring our services meet the highest standards of safety, effectiveness, and governance. (Care Quality Commission)

WHAT WE DO
Complex & Clinical Care
We provide nurse-led, specialist care for individuals with high-dependency needs, including neurological conditions, brain injuries, and long-term health conditions. Our approach ensures individuals receive advanced care within the comfort of their own home while maintaining independence and quality of life. (Unicare Complex Care)

Supported Living
Our supported living environments are designed to promote independence while providing structured, consistent support. We create safe, empowering spaces where individuals can develop life skills, build confidence, and engage meaningfully in their communities. (Unicare Complex Care)

Mental Health & Behavioural Support
We deliver holistic mental health support for individuals with complex emotional and behavioural needs, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality disorders. Our teams are trained to provide consistent, compassionate care that promotes recovery and stability. (Unicare Complex Care)

Autism & Learning Disability Support
Our specialist teams provide structured, person-centred support tailored to each individual. We focus on communication, emotional regulation, and life skills development, enabling individuals to thrive both at home and in the community. (Unicare Complex Care)

SEND & Alternative Provision
We work closely with families, schools, and local authorities to deliver tailored educational and developmental support for children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), unlocking potential and improving long-term outcomes. (Unicare Complex Care)

Home Care & Live-In Support
We provide flexible home care and live-in services, supporting individuals with personal care, medication, mobility, and daily living—ensuring comfort, safety, and emotional wellbeing within familiar surroundings. (Unicare Complex Care)

OUR APPROACH
Everything we do is built around a simple principle:
Care should be personalised, consistent, and empowering.
We achieve this through:
• Individualised care planning based on detailed assessments
• Highly trained staff, supported by ongoing professional development
• 24/7 operational support, ensuring continuity and responsiveness
• Strong partnerships with families, commissioners, and professionals
Our services are designed not just to meet needs—but to improve quality of life, promote independence, and deliver meaningful outcomes. (Unicare Complex Care)

• Dignity & Respect – Every individual is treated with compassion and understanding
• Empowerment – Supporting people to live as independently as possible
