About Northumberland Road

Northumberland Road is a residential care home in Coventry, providing personal care for people with learning disabilities or autism. Full details of the CQC's most recent findings are set out below.

This home provides accommodation with personal care for up to four people with learning disabilities or autism. It operates with a family-centred approach, run by a registered manager and one part-time care staff member. The service supports people to live as independently as possible within the community, promoting choice and inclusion.

The home's ethos emphasises treating residents as part of the family rather than simply providing institutional care, allowing people with learning disabilities and autism to participate in ordinary community life alongside their support needs.
