Hi Carol,
We are having a student with uncontrolled epilepsy this year at the
Stafford campus. He is having round the clock support provided by
two resident helpers [ our in house support worker scheme} They
will share the same student flat [ 5 rooms in total, so not exclusively
a disabled student ghetto] and be connected by intercom which the
student wants to leave open all night. They will receive all the
standard training we provide plus additional training around epilepsy.
If you want to know more let me know.
Liz Lewis
