CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Briardene is a 13-bed residential care home in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, run by Harrogate Skills 4 Living Centre. Its CQC registration covers older people, younger adults and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in North Yorkshire, where the typical home has 29 beds.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in July 2018. The rating is more than 5 years old. In North Yorkshire, 49% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
Across North Yorkshire, 86% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in December 2024. That is true of 94% of homes in North Yorkshire. Harrogate Skills 4 Living Centre runs 2 care homes, and all 2 rated are Good or Outstanding. About 0.1 km away, Hyde Park House is rated Outstanding.
