Caregenics Healthcare

Caregenics Healthcare is a home care agency based in Burnley, in the Lancashire 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 Burnley 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, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. Its website lists hourly visits, live-in care, sleeping nights, respite care and hospital discharge. The agency has been registered since June 2022.

Caregenics 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.

Caregenics Healthcare has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Lancashire with a rate on record typically charge about £25 an hour and £1,675 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

On how it works, the agency says: 24/7 on-call, english and carers drive. Details like these come from the agency's own website and change, so confirm them when you call.

There are 262 registered home care agencies in Lancashire. Others working the same area include Complex Care Professionals, Home Instead Burnley and Routes Healthcare Burnley, 6 of which have a rate on record. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
