Herne Bay

Herne Bay is a home care agency based in Herne Bay, 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 Herne Bay 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 physical disability and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by East Kent Care. The agency has been registered since May 2026.

Herne Bay 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.
