HCRG Dorset

HCRG Dorset is a home care agency based in Poole, in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole 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 Poole office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for 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. Its website lists live-in care, same-day start and children's care. It is part of HCRG, which has 15 branches in England. The agency has been registered since April 2020.

At its latest inspection, published June 2026, the CQC rated HCRG Dorset 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.

HCRG Dorset has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole with a rate on record typically charge about £32.25 an hour and £1,398 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.
