About Parkbourn

Parkbourn is a residential care home in Sefton, providing support for people with autism. Further details on the service are set out in the CQC findings below.

Parkbourn is a residential care home supporting up to eight people with autism. At the time of inspection, all eight places were occupied. The service provides person-centred support designed to help residents live meaningful lives with control, choice, and independence.

Although the home is larger than typical domestic properties, it blends into the residential area with a design similar to other large homes in the neighbourhood. There are no identifying signs, intercoms, cameras, or industrial bins outside that would indicate it is a care home, helping maintain a domestic atmosphere.
