Carlton Court

Carlton Court is a home care agency based in Southend-on-Sea, 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 Southend-on-Sea 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. It is run by Mevtec 360 Locum. The agency has been registered since December 2016.

Carlton Court 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.
