Acomb Carers

Acomb Carers is a home care agency based in York, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 16 miles of its York office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The agency has been registered since December 2023.

Acomb Carers has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.

Acomb Carers has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in York with a rate on record typically charge about £32 an hour, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

There are 42 registered home care agencies in York. Others working the same area include Carefound Home Care (York), Age UK York and Mencap York Domiciliary Care, 5 of which have a rate on record. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
