Therapeutic home based care

What is therapeutic home based care?

Therapeutic home based care, or THBC, is specifically for children or young people who have complex needs and require more extensive, specialised support. Providing THBC gives young people the safety and comfort of a family home alongside access to the one-on-one attention and therapeutic support they need. 

 

To be a THBC carer you need to have a therapeutic background or be willing to undertake specific training. This type of placement is an intensive role, and requires the carer to stay home full-time.



It is truly wonderful and heartwarming to provide foster care and support for these two young boys, showing them love, stability, and guidance during this crucial time in their lives.
