I am pleased to provide this statement in support of CJP, who have consistently demonstrated exemplary standards in the care and support of individuals with complex needs and behaviours that challenge. CJP have provided an outstanding service to two of my patients under the care of the Rapid Intervention Team within Somerset NHS Foundation Trust. Both individuals present with highly complex behavioural profiles that have previously led to placement breakdowns with other providers. In contrast, CJP have not only sustained these packages of care, but have made demonstrable progress in promoting stability, engagement, and improved quality of life. Their approach is person-centred, highly responsive, and underpinned by a genuine commitment to joint working. CJP are a model of collaborative, multi-disciplinary practice—always approachable, transparent, and proactive in communication. They work closely with NHS and social care professionals, and are consistently receptive to advice, feedback, and co-produced care planning.

Whenever anyone asks me for the name of the best, most responsive and most capable community provider, I will always tell them CJPOS. Proven over time and over different individuals, but for me, nothing will ever surpass working with you and Liz Leach to get Christian out of a lifetime of institutional care. Whenever I see him cuddling a dog, walking on the beach, having a meal out, it makes me so happy. When I remember him greeting me at his own front door in WSM and offering me a cup of tea and a tour of his flat I cant help think of him in hospital, lying on a bean bag, staring into space, totally unkept and having soiled himself and not caring less. It has actually brought a tear to my eye, just writing this. To think of the number of lives that you touch in the same way is humbling.

A huge thank you to CJP and the care team for the compassionate support provided to MOQ, especially for stepping up and covering additional hours at such short notice. A special mention to Claire Matheson and Kirsty Crowther for their fantastic support, and to Rosey Speller for liaising throughout to ensure Owais was well supported. This level of teamwork and flexibility is truly appreciated
