About Curagate
We at Curagate Oxford are proud to provide compassionate home care across Oxford and the surrounding Oxfordshire communities, supporting individuals to live safely, comfortably, and with dignity in the place they know best: their own home. Serving families throughout the OX postcode area, our team travels across the historic city of Oxford and its neighbouring villages to bring personalised support directly to your doorstep. We understand that remaining at home, surrounded by familiar sights, cherished belongings, and treasured memories, can be one of the most reassuring choices for anyone needing extra help. Whether your loved one lives in a bustling neighbourhood close to the city centre or in a quieter corner of the county, we tailor our visits to fit seamlessly into their daily rhythm and routine. Our specialisms reflect the diverse needs of the people we support. We provide older person care that focuses on maintaining independence whilst offering just the right level of help with daily living. For those living with dementia, we take a gentle, patient approach, building trusted relationships that bring calm and consistency to each visit. We also support adults with physical disabilities and those with visual or hearing impairments, adapting our communication and practical assistance to suit each individual. Younger adults who benefit from tailored home care will find a team committed to promoting choice, confidence, and meaningful daily living. In practice, this means our carers can help with personal care, medication prompts, mobility support, meal preparation, companionship, and the countless small tasks that keep a household running smoothly. For families, it means peace of mind knowing that a familiar, understanding face is checking in, listening, and communicating openly about how their relative is doing. Our most recent CQC inspection, carried out in June 2022, gave us an overall rating of Requires Improvement. We were pleased to be rated Good in the Effective, Caring, and Responsive domains, a reflection of the warmth and skill our carers bring to every visit and the meaningful outcomes we help our clients achieve. We take equally seriously the areas identified for improvement under Safe and Well-led, and we are actively working to strengthen these aspects of our care so that every family who chooses us can feel completely confident in the support we provide. Choosing home care is a deeply personal decision, and we know how much thought goes into finding the right team. If you are exploring options for yourself or someone you love in Oxford or the wider Oxfordshire area, we would be delighted to talk with you, answer your questions, and help you decide whether our approach feels right for your family. Please do reach out whenever you are ready. We are here to listen.
