Franklyn Lodge The Bungalow

Franklyn Lodge – The Bungalow is a care home providing residential care to 4 people with learning disabilities.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. 'Right support, right care, right culture' is the guidance the Care Quality Commission (CQC) follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.

Right Support: People and family members told us the service was safe. Staff understood their responsibilities about safeguarding and keeping people safe from harm as much as possible. Medicines were managed safely. Risks of harm to people were assessed and reduced as much as possible. Staff were recruited safely. Systems were in place to prevent the spread of infection. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
