About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 January 2020. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Bishops Way is a residential care home that provides accommodation and personal care support for up to four adults with learning disabilities. The service specialises in providing support to people with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). Prader Willi Syndrome is a rare genetic condition that causes a range of physical symptoms, learning difficulties and behavioural problems. People with PWS have an excessive appetite which can easily lead to dangerous weight gain.
