The Process
-
Enquire
The first step is to understand the nature of Frankton Park’s services and the options that are available to you. After talking it through with us, if it is felt Frankton Park may be able to meet your need an assessment is organised, which includes meeting with you and other relevant people. This allows initial discussions of our philosophy and values, programs, services and an opportunity for all parties to assess fit.
-
Referral
All applicants are assessed on an individual basis with due consideration given to suitability of environment (mobility and support levels needed), funding status, our ability to provide the appropriate level of support, etc. We believe that “fit for a service” is a two-way process. If it is decided that Frankton Park is the preferred and appropriate service provider, a written referral from the relevant funder is required.

Next Steps
Once services are accepted, we offer choices according to identified and agreed needs. Individual choice is an integral part of our service as it creates a positive framework for rehabilitation and living a full life. Care plans are created, integrating cultural, spiritual, relationship and physical needs, and aim for the achievement of the highest level of independence possible for each person.
