We conduct a risk assessment before accepting the family and we will only exclude a parent from service if they represent a serious risk to staff and other families we are working with We place great importance on maintaining open and timely communication with the professionals involved with the family and will attend relevant meetings in the home area We work with families when the professionals involved are unsure of the parent’s abilities, or believe there is significant risk that there may be chance for the family to remain as a unit or when there are serious concerns but little evidence to reach a definite decision We provide early intervention and support to parents to help them recognise the needs of their children through example and by using education, demonstration, positive encouragement and observation Browning House is Ofsted regulated and we aim to ensure the protection and safety of children by offering parents a role model and training, to enable themselves to care for their children within the community
