About Avenues South East - 492 Maidstone Road

Avenues South East - 492 Maidstone Road is a small, homely care home based in Kent, offering a familiar and settled environment for the people who live there. The dedicated team works to create a warm, supportive atmosphere where residents can feel at home in their day-to-day lives. For families exploring care options in the area, it can be reassuring to find a service with a clear commitment to the individuals it supports.

This residential home provides care and support for four adults with multiple learning disabilities, including autism, cerebral palsy, communication difficulties, visual impairment, and challenging behaviour. The service is part of Avenues Trust and aims to support people to live full, meaningful lives with control, choice, and independence through person-centred care.

However, inspectors identified significant concerns. Staffing levels were not consistently maintained to meet people's needs, and staff did not always receive adequate training and supervision according to the provider's policies. Quality assurance systems were ineffective at driving improvements, and records were not kept consistently or updated promptly, creating risks for unsafe care and support.
