About Hibernia
Hibernia is a residential care home in Hampshire, providing accommodation and support for adults with learning disabilities and/or autism. Further details from the CQC's most recent inspection are set out below.
Hibernia accommodates up to five adults with learning disabilities and/or autism across two floors. At the time of inspection, five people were being supported at the service.
The home demonstrated good infection control practices. Visitors were required to sanitise their hands, sign in, and have their temperature taken upon arrival. Staff asked about COVID-19 symptoms or contact and requested evidence of vaccination and a lateral flow device test taken that day.
Face masks were available at the entrance for those who needed them, and visitors were only admitted after completing these safety procedures.
