Care Plus Direct Ltd

Care Plus Direct Ltd is a home care agency based in Handsworth, in the Birmingham 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 Handsworth 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 a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Care Plus Direct. The agency has been registered since March 2022.

Care Plus Direct Ltd 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.
