What inspectors found

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 26 June 2018. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Care service description Carlile Lodge is a service for up to ten people with learning disabilities and /or autistic spectrum disorder who may also have behaviours that can be challenging. People lived in their own flats and shared communal areas such as a kitchen, lounge, dining room and laundry room. There were eight people living at the service when we inspected.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Carlile Lodge is a 'care home'. People in care homes receive accommodation and nursing or personal care as single package under one contractual agreement. CQC regulates both the premises and the care provided, and both were looked at during this inspection. The care service has been developed and designed in line with the values that underpin the Registering the Right Support and other best practice guidance. These values include choice, promotion of independence and inclusion. People with learning disabilities and autism using the service can live as ordinary a life as any citizen.

Questions to ask when you visit
