Amber Support Services

Amber Support Services is a home care agency based in Bromsgrove, in the Worcestershire 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 Bromsgrove office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by Amber Care Centre. The agency has been registered since November 2010.

At its latest inspection, published July 2019, the CQC rated Amber Support Services 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.
