Best practice
We help many people whose behaviour has been shaped by distress (so-called ‘challenging behaviour’) to reduce their support needs over time and live fulfilling lives in their local community.
Most colleagues tell us they like working for Dimensions so our staff retention rates are more than double the sector average. That means we build better long term relationships with the people we support. Commissioners trust us; we work with more people every year. And 89% of Dimensions services are currently rated Good or Outstanding by CQC/CIW (at May 2021.)
Below, you’ll find some of the things that we believe make our support stand out. Or, to assess how we’re doing, why not download our Impact Report for 2020-21?
