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 March 2022 CQC inspection report shows we have achieved this goal. Please read feedback from our inspector, customers, their relatives and health & social care professionals which is recorded in the report:
• People felt safe and protected. One person told us, “I feel 100% safe.” A relative said, “I don’t have any concerns about [person’s] safety since [person] has been there. [Person] receives consistent good care.”
• The registered manager also performed a personality test to ensure the right staff were recruited. They told us, “We want people [staff] who have a caring and empathetic nature. We want to know what’s important to you [staff] and if you [staff] are going to care about our clients and are willing to learn new strategies.”
• Staff demonstrated good understanding of people’s individual needs. A relative told us, “They [staff] work with [person] regularly. They [staff] got to know [person] and understand what their needs are.”
• A relative told us, “Everyone seems fairly content and happy, they get on with each other and the
environment is nice and calm. Staff seem fairly happy.” Another relative told us, “Staff are super friendly, they are absolutely fantastic with [person].”
