Gemini Grange

Gemini Grange is a home care agency based in Wetherby, in the Leeds council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Wetherby office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of Home Instead, which has 145 branches in England. The agency has been registered since November 2011.

At its latest inspection, published March 2018, the CQC rated Gemini Grange Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
