Chime Care Limited

Chime Care Limited is a home care agency based in Dartford, in the Kent 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 Dartford 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 and people with a physical disability. It is run by Chime Care. The agency has been registered since June 2023.

Chime Care Limited 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.

Chime Care Limited has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Kent.
