What inspectors found

From the Care Quality Commission's assessment published 4 August 2025 (assessment visit 18 June 2025). Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Date of Assessment: 4 July to 18 July 2025

Cera Lanehurst Gardens provides care and support to people living in specialist 'extra care' housing. Extra care housing is purpose-built or adapted single household accommodation in a shared site or building. The accommodation is rented or owned and is the occupant's own home. Not everyone who lived at Cera Lanehurst Gardens received personal care. CQC only inspects where people receive personal care; this is help with tasks related to personal hygiene and eating. Where they do, we also consider any wider social care provided.
