About CareHomeGuide
We're on a mission to make finding the right care home simpler, clearer, and less stressful.
Independent
We're not owned by any care home provider. Our recommendations are based on data, not commercial relationships.
Free to Use
Our service is completely free for families. We believe everyone deserves access to quality information about care options.
Comprehensive
We cover every registered care home in England — nearly 15,000 homes — so you can compare all your options in one place.
Our Story
Finding a care home for a loved one is one of the most difficult decisions a family can face. It often happens at a time of crisis, when emotions are running high and time is short.
We built CareHomeGuide to make this process easier. By bringing together comprehensive data on every care home in England, we help families make informed decisions without having to piece together information from multiple sources.
Our Data
CareHomeGuide aggregates and presents publicly available data to help you compare care homes. Our information includes:
- Inspection ratings and reports — Based on regulatory assessments of care quality
- Care types and specialisms — Whether a home offers residential, nursing, or specialist dementia care
- Location and contact details — Accurate addresses and phone numbers
- Capacity — Number of beds where available
We update our data weekly to ensure you have access to the most current information available.
What We Don't Do
We provide information to help you research and compare care homes, but we're not a care placement service. We don't:
- Make recommendations about which home to choose
- Arrange care placements or admissions
- Provide financial or legal advice
- Conduct our own inspections
For professional advice, we recommend consulting with your local council, a social worker, or an independent care advisor.
