It is the aim of North Yorkshire County Council to promote healthy living and social wellbeing through support to individuals, families and communities in North Yorkshire.
We work in partnership with our colleagues in health, the voluntary sector and others to improve the health of people in North Yorkshire and to support people who face health difficulties.
The care services directory contains information about social care services available in North Yorkshire and lists care and nursing homes in the county.
The directory provides valuable advice for people who are thinking of using social care services for themselves or their relatives. You can view the care services directory online. Alternatively, if you would like a hard copy of the directory, call the customer services centre on 0845 8 72 73 74 to request one or visit your local library to access a reference copy.
North Yorkshire County Council's new health and wellbeing role
We are in the process of taking over local responsibilities for public health and wellbeing. As part of this, a health and wellbeing board has been created to oversee the assessment of community health and wellbeing needs and to create a joint health and wellbeing strategy.
A Local Healthwatch organisation will also be created to act as an independent consumer champion for health and social care.
For more details, see the health and wellbeing section of the North Yorkshire partnerships website.
