About Harlington House
Harlington’s team strives to ensure we are a pro-choice home advocating for person-centred excellence for all.
The home consists of a Manager, Deputy Manager, 2 x Senior Support staff, and a wide team that helps to pull together and provide a safe and responsive environment to live in. Our team specialises in the development of communication skills supporting and promoting everyone, verbal and non-verbal, to become involved in dictating the management and standards of the level of care provided.
A free-flowing communication ethos allows our residents to depict the activities put forth dependent on their hobbies, ranging from but not limited to developing internet safety skills to craft sewing sessions to trips to local sights of interest – such as Brimham Rocks.

This service is currently rated Requires Improvement by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). This rating relates to an inspection done on the 2 December 2022
A Requires Improvement rating does not mean that people are unsafe or that care is not being delivered. It highlights areas where the CQC has identified opportunities for further development.
Since the inspection, we have worked closely with our internal quality team on a service improvement plan which focussed on the areas raised in the inspection and was overseen by senior leaders. We carry our regular audits which ensure continued compliance and best practice.
We remain fully compliant with CQC regulations and are committed to continuous improvement. Our priority is, and always will be, to provide safe, person centred care that supports people to live happy, independent, and fulfilling lives.
