Care At Home

Care At Home is a home care agency based in Manchester, in the Bury council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 9 miles of its Manchester office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Federation of Jewish Services. The agency has been registered since August 2013.

At its latest inspection, published March 2019, the CQC rated Care At Home 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.
