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.

An example of our commitment to staff development includes supporting Health Care Assistants to complete their nurse training.
