Bedford Lodge is a residential care home in Bedford, run by Care Assist Limited. It is registered for up to 3 residents and supports younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment.
CQC rated it Good overall in August 2019, and Good in all five key questions. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across Bedford, 78% of the 69 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 7 years old. CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
