You can view Reading care homes above. Our listings contain overall Care Quality Commission (CQC) ratings, the different types of care available, and the facilities available.

Many of our care homes in Reading are nursing homes with registered nurses (including for people who have experienced strokes and now need intensive rehabilitation) and residential care homes providing respectful personal care (daily support with tasks like using the bathroom and getting in and out of bed). A residential home is likely best suited if your loved one has lower care needs and is still fairly independent.

There are also homes offering specialist dementia support in Reading. Carers in these homes are trained in the most up-to-date dementia care methods. Dementia residents also benefit from innovative features like sensory gardens and reminiscence rooms.

There’s plenty for older adults to do in Reading. Idyllic green spaces such as Forbury Gardens and Prospect Park and iconic landmarks like the Reading Abbey Ruins are must-visit destinations. Countless public transport links, ranging from trains to buses, make it easy for those with limited mobility to explore these locations. Meanwhile, healthcare facilities such as the Royal Berkshire Hospital and the Reading Walk-in Health Centre are on hand in the event of accidents or emergencies, giving older adults speedy access to care.

While Reading has so many fantastic options, we can also guide you in exploring nearby locations. We've curated a list of care homes in Basingstoke, Aylesbury and Oxford.
