Our view of the service
Cornerways is part of Streetscene Addiction Recovery Limited. Cornerways is one of three substance misuse residential rehabilitation and detoxification services in Bournemouth and Southampton.
Cornerways has 20 beds and offers a 24-hour service for males and females. Clients receive treatment for substance misuse problems. The majority of the funding arrangements are through statutory organisations. However, the service does accept self-funders.
Cornerways has been registered with the Care Quality Commission since November 2006. The service is registered to provide accommodation for persons over 18 years of age who require treatment for substance misuse. There is a CQC registered manager in place. We previously inspected Cornerways in January 2025. We rated the domains of safe, effective and responsive as good at this inspection. Well led and caring were not inspected at that inspection.
At this inspection we have rated the service good overall and good in each domain. Though we did find one breach of regulation. We found that national guidance on mixed sex accommodation was not being followed. We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment
