Action Deafness

Action Deafness is a home care agency based in Loughborough, in the Leicestershire council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Loughborough office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with a sensory impairment. The agency has been registered since March 2016.

At its latest inspection, published May 2019, the CQC rated Action Deafness Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
