Carleton Glen is a home care agency based in Wakefield, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 9 miles of its Wakefield office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us.

It is part of Alternative Care, which has 2 branches in England. The agency has been registered since August 2024.

Carleton Glen has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.

Carleton Glen has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Wakefield with a rate on record typically charge about £29.50 an hour, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.
