Address Healthcare

Address Healthcare is a home care agency based in Reading, 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 Reading 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 learning disability or autism. It is run by Address Enterprise. The agency has been registered since September 2022.

Address Healthcare 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.
