About Langley View Residential Home

Langley View Residential Home is a residential care home in Hertfordshire, supporting younger adults with a learning disability or autistic people. Details of the most recent CQC findings are set out below.

Langley View Residential Home provides residential care for younger adults with a learning disability or autistic people, supporting up to six people. The CQC rated the service as requires improvement overall, with concerns particularly around safety and leadership. Inspectors found risks were not always managed effectively, and the environment needed refurbishment to reach a good standard, though staffing levels and training were adequate.

People spoken with were positive about their care, describing enjoyable outings and activities, and staff interactions were observed to be respectful and kind. The service did not fully meet the statutory guidance for supporting autistic people and those with a learning disability. A previous breach relating to consent had, however, been addressed.

The following is CQC's published account of its assessment, published 11 December 2025. References to “we” mean CQC. It describes findings at that time.

The assessment took place on 24 July 2025 and 13 August 2025. The service is a residential care at home providing support to younger adults with a learning disability or autistic people. 6 people lived at Langley View Residential Home. At the last comprehensive inspection on 25 February 2021 the service was rated as requires improvement in effective and well led. We found a breach of regulation 11 consent to care. At this inspection this breach had been met.

The key question relating to safe was rated requires improvement: This meant some aspects of the service were not always safe and there was limited assurance about safety. There was an increased risk that people could be harmed.

Risk assessments were completed and kept under regular review. Staff understood why risk assessments were important to help reduce the risk of harm or injury to people who lived at Langley View. However, risks were not always managed effectively. This meant some aspects of the service were not always safe and there was limited assurance about safety. The facilities met people’s basic needs, but the environment needed refurbishment to bring it up to a good well-maintained standard. There were enough staff with the right skills, qualifications, and experience. Managers made sure staff received training, supervision and regular appraisals to maintain a good standard of care.

We expect health and social care providers to guarantee autistic people and people with a learning disability the choices, dignity, independence, and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. Right support, right care, right culture is the statutory guidance which supports CQC to make assessments and judgements about services providing support to people with a learning disability and/or autistic people. We considered this guidance as there were people using the service who have a learning disability and/or who are autistic. The service did not fully meet this guidance.
