Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 26 good, 7 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
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. ?
Riverview Nursing Home is a 45-bed nursing home in Ilkley, Bradford, run by Ilkley Care Associates Ltd. It is registered to care for older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with mental health needs.
Abbeydale Residential Care Home, 0.8 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in August 2025. 85% of homes in Bradford also score 5. In Bradford, 77% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
Its CQC rating, from May 2025, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in November 2019. The typical rating in Bradford is about 3 years old, so this one is fairly recent. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 7 fell below good. The lowest was “assessing needs” (some shortfalls).
