CareTech Community Services Limited - 34 Porthill Bank

This care home accommodates up to six people with learning disabilities or autistic spectrum disorders, currently supporting five residents. The service aims to enable people to live full and meaningful lives with control and choice, though inspectors found the practices were not consistently meeting these principles. Staff observations revealed gaps between the home's stated approach and daily implementation, with residents not always experiencing the level of autonomy and decision-making support the service intended to provide. The home has potential to better align its day-to-day care practices with its foundational values to genuinely support residents' independence and quality of life.
