Atlas House provides care for adults with learning difficulties and needs that cannot be met in mainstream services. It is a purpose-built specialist inpatient service, based in South East London. The team can provide 24/7 support for up to 11 people.
Our service works with people who have a learning disability together with complex or challenging behaviour, mental health needs, and neurodevelopmental needs.
Atlas House is divided into four flats. As a result, our team can provide care in a single-sex environment, when necessary.
We use a multidisciplinary approach to support patients at Atlas House. This means we work with other teams and agencies to provide care. For instance, we work with:
