Each organisation has committed to an agreed set of values which emphasise hope, openness and honesty, a person-centred approach, empowerment and opportunity, and collaboration, as well as safety and least restriction principles.

Arnold Lodge is a member of the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Service.  The latest aggregated report 2017 to 2019 ranks us as the 3rd highest scoring Medium Secure Unit in the country.  60 medium secure mental health services from across the UK and Ireland participated in the latest cycle 12.

We are proud that our workforce is well trained, with our mandatory training statistics 95 - 97% for 2019. We actively encourage our staff to develop their skills and knowledge through comprehensive and supportive supervision, which links to continued professional development. For example, we support our healthcare assistants to complete their nurse training.

We aspire to providing an inclusive and outstanding service by improving our engagement with patients, carers and staff,, based on least restrictive practice and quality improvements.
