How this list is ordered

Homes in Bolton are ordered by the MyCareCheck score, the average of the CQC's ratings for the five questions it asks at every inspection. Where two homes score the same, the better overall rating goes first.

Paying never changes a home's rating, score or place. Top places are only offered to homes rated Good or Outstanding and are always labelled.

Questions families ask

What should physical disability care homes offer?

A suitable home should support mobility, personal care and independence without creating avoidable barriers. Check the actual building, equipment and staffing rather than relying on a service label alone.

How many physical disability care homes are there in Bolton?

24 physical disability care homes in Bolton are on the CQC register (data of 2 November 2026).

How much does a care home cost in Bolton?

Bolton council paid on average £895 a week for residential care and £891 for nursing care for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025. For adults aged 18 to 64 it paid £1,962 and £1,957. Across England the averages were £982 and £1,102 for people aged 65 and over. People who pay for their own care are often charged more, so ask each home for its weekly fee.

How are these care homes ordered?

Ordered by the MyCareCheck score: the average of the five CQC key-question ratings (safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led) on a 0 to 10 scale, where Outstanding is 10, Good 8, Requires improvement 5 and Inadequate 2.
