Sheltered Work Facility

Sheltered Work Facility is a CLINIC OR FACILITY.

A Sheltered Work Facility run specifically to provide work, usually during the day time, in sheltered surroundings for in particular, though not exclusively, those who are elderly, mentally ill or have learning difficulties.

The facilities specifically do not have Hospital Beds and function separately from any WARD.

Sheltered Work Facilities are usually open during the five week days. In some places a SERVICE may be provided only once or twice a week and the SERVICE may take the form of evening or weekend sessions.
