About Insight Walderslade
Adults with learning disabilities and behaviours that challenge community services receive specialist residential support at Insight Walderslade. The home forms part of a behavioural service developed for people with complex support needs, with care shaped around quality of life, rights and participation in daily decisions.
Insight uses Positive Behaviour Support in its homes, applying values-led and data-led approaches to understand individual needs and motivations. Residents live in community settings close to local amenities and public services. The wider organisation operates across Medway and Swale, with placements also considered from other commissioning areas. This makes the home relevant to people who need structured support while retaining a home-like setting and involvement in everyday choices.
