Rydale Community Care

Rydale Community Care is a home care agency based in Pickering, in the North Yorkshire 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 Pickering 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 and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Ryedale Community Care. The agency has been registered since March 2020.

At its latest inspection, published February 2023, the CQC rated Rydale Community 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.
