About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 9 February 2024. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

This service provides care to people living in specialist 'extra care' housing. Extra care housing is purpose built or adapted household accommodation in a shared site or building. The apartments are either purchased or rented and is the occupant's own home. People's care and housing are provided under separate contractual agreements. CQC does not regulate premises used for extra care housing; this inspection looked at people who received a personal care service.
