About Lynton Terrace

Lynton Terrace is a small residential care home in Ealing, offering a quieter, more personal setting for adults who benefit from a close-knit environment. The home's size means that residents and their families can expect a level of familiarity and individual attention that larger settings can find harder to provide. For families exploring care options in west London, Lynton Terrace is worth getting to know.

Lynton Terrace provides accommodation and care for up to 10 adults with mental health needs. At the time of inspection, all 10 places were occupied. People were happy at the service and felt safe and well cared for.

They received personalised care and had positive relationships with staff members. The home facilitated access to healthcare professionals who worked closely with the care team.

However, inspectors found several concerns. The environment and equipment were not always safely maintained or clean. While medicines were administered safely, storage systems and other medicine management procedures were not secure.

The provider's systems for monitoring and mitigating risks were not consistently effective. These issues indicated gaps in the home's safety and quality assurance processes.
