Residential care for a family - is this something that exists?

JamGardener

I find myself searching for support often as my situation has been desperate for a long time and I have always found the propect of residential support appealing, even if only temporarily so that I can, well, sort myself out, but it always seems to be just for individuals. I have a wife and three children, and all of us have ASD, ADHD or both, and we're not coping (massive understatement), but I think we could, we just need a high level of support for a short amount of time and then could taper it off. 

Does residential care for families, as opposed to individuals, exist?

Thanks,
James

  • There probably isn't, but it's a great idea. Often everything is treated individually, but these conditions are known to be genetic, so having that addressed would be a huge step forward. Might be worth writing to people about like NAS proper, a more holistic approach for families would be cheaper probably too.
