Purity Care

Purity Care is a home care agency based in Swindon, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 16 miles of its Swindon 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 and people with a learning disability or autism. The agency has been registered since May 2015.

At its latest inspection, published June 2019, the CQC rated Purity Care 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.
