Our Accommodation Services

Future Homes – 45 beds

The accommodation includes a private bedroom, bathroom facilities, communal activities space, laundry facilities, designated smoking areas and self catering facilities. Support with meal preparation is offered where required and new residents will receive a welcome food and toiletries pack.

Support staff are available 24/7 for support, advocacy, advice and provision of resources.

All people in our Future Homes program will be provided with, and expected to participate in, one on one case management on a weekly basis to provide advice, advocacy, emotional support and develop an individualised case management plan to aid residents in moving on and into a more independent life. Residents can stay up to 3 months and will actively work with their case manager to seek longer term accommodation in the community.

Case Management

Assisting our clients with accessing the services and supports they are entitled to, is one of our main focuses at St Bart’s.

Case management is a process of working with the individual on a one-on-one level and focuses on their needs, goals, and developing flexible strategies to assist them to achieve their goals. Empowering our clients to make positive changes is the aim of our Case Management program.

Activities Program

Our team works in partnership with external agencies, including Reclink, to provide a range of activities for residents to take part in. We recognise the importance of social interactions and development of new skills to contribute to the case management and growth process. We have a team of dedicated volunteers who assist in facilitation of the activities program.

Specialist Services

St Bart’s works with a range of services to provide specialist support for those accommodated with us.
