Welcome
Paradise Independent Living (PIL) is a Supported Living Provider registered with the CARE QUALITY COMMISSION (CQC). We are a family run organisation and have been providing care and support with accommodation since 1998. Our accommodation and services are located in the North London Borough of Enfield.
We aim to provide caring and responsive services. Our December 2019 CQC inspection report shows we have achieved this goal. Please read feedback from our customers, their relatives and health & social care professionals which is recorded in the report:
• People and their relatives spoke positively about the care they received and indicated positive caring relationships had developed between people and support workers. People told us “Staff are very caring, dedicated. They always go the extra mile” and “Staff are kind, always there for me. This is my second family now.”
• People’s equality and diversity needs were detailed in their care plans and met. A person told us they regularly went to their place of worship every week and was supported with their dietary requirements in accordance with their culture. A relative told us “They understand [person’s] cultural needs and they respond appropriately.”
• People spoke positively about the service they received which met their needs and preferences. A person told us “I am so happy living here. It is unbelievable! Staff care about me and I am very content.” Another person told us “I’ve been to a number of places; this place is the only one where the staff are perfect.”
• We received positive feedback from a healthcare professional who told us the service was very responsive and sensitive to people’ needs. They also told us the service had been very holistic in tailoring their care and shown a high level of knowledge of how to support people with a brain injury and complex cognitive and behavioural impairments.
