Yewtree Avenue

Yewtree Avenue is a home care agency based in Dagenham, in the Barking and Dagenham 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 Dagenham 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 Blueboard Care Services. The agency has been registered since October 2016.

At its latest inspection, published March 2023, the CQC rated Yewtree Avenue 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.
