About The Italian Lodge
The Italian Lodge works with people across Prenton and the surrounding part of the Wirral in their own homes. Our starting point is what somebody wants their life to look like, and then the practical question of what support would make that possible. We work with adults who have a learning disability and with autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions and younger adults. A great deal of what we do is about independence rather than dependence. Where somebody can take on more for themselves, whether that is cooking, managing money, using transport or getting into work or study, we would rather spend the time helping them get there than doing it for them because it is quicker. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of it and clear that a rating reflects a point in time rather than a guarantee. What keeps support good is the daily effort, keeping the same workers with the same people, going at somebody's pace and being honest when something has not worked. If you are looking into support at home here, we are glad to talk it through openly.
