What it may cost
We estimate Nightingale Hall at £1,110–£1,350 a week for residential care, based on published prices in the region. Over a year that is roughly £58k–£70k.
Ask whether the fee changes if needs increase, and what is extra: hairdressing, chiropody, outings and newspapers are often charged separately.
With savings below £23,250, North Yorkshire Council may contribute once it has carried out a free needs assessment.
The local picture
There are 4 other care homes within 3 miles, 2 of them rated Good or Outstanding; the nearest is The Terrace, under 0.5 miles away.
Every one of the 7 nearest rated care homes has a more recent rating than this one, so ask what has changed since its inspection.

How long it has been running
Nightingale Hall has been registered with CQC since January 2011, about 15 years.
CQC has published 4 overall ratings for it (2015–2021), starting at Good; it has gone up 1 and down 1 time, and is now Inspected but not rated.
It has gone 8 years without a new overall rating. CQC schedules inspections by risk, so this is not a bad sign in itself, though leadership may have moved on.
Reports on record: 6, with the most recent dated 3 March 2021.
Strengths and weak spots in the ratings
CQC rated every one of the five key questions Good here, so there is no weak spot in the published ratings.
For leadership (Well-led), it shares its Good rating with 138 of the 180 other care homes in North Yorkshire that CQC has rated.
