Hungerford Care Home is a nursing home in Hungerford, run by GCH (Alder) Ltd (part of Gold Care Homes). CQC registers it for 59 places and supports older people, people living with dementia and younger adults.

CQC rated it Requires improvement overall in November 2017. It was rated Good for caring and responsive. This rating was carried over from the home's previous registration, usually after a change of owner. Across West Berkshire, 90% of the 39 rated care homes are Good or Outstanding. The rating is 8 years old. CQC decides when to re-inspect based on risk, so this isn't a mark against the home, but it's worth asking what has changed since.
