Blandford Lodge

Blandford Lodge provides care for up to four adults with mental health needs, with three residents at the time of inspection. The service has made improvements in financial support systems, medicine management, and internal audits. Residents report good relationships with staff and feel comfortable and at home. Care plans reflect individual needs and choices, with staff supporting access to healthcare services and a range of activities both inside and outside the home.

Residents have developed relationships with friends in the local community, and staff help them maintain these connections. The registered manager oversees this service alongside another care home and supported living services, with some staff working across multiple locations.
