Nestora Home Care

Nestora Home Care is a home care agency based in Huddersfield, in the Kirklees 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 Huddersfield 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, younger adults, 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 run by Comfort Home Care. The agency has been registered since October 2017.

At its latest inspection, published April 2020, the CQC rated Nestora Home Care Requires improvement, which means the CQC found the service was not performing as well as it should and told it how to improve. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
