North Lincolnshire Services

North Lincolnshire Services is a home care agency based in Scunthorpe, in the North Lincolnshire 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 Scunthorpe office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. It is part of Creative Support, which has 48 branches in England. The agency has been registered since March 2017.

North Lincolnshire Services 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.
