Edmund House

Edmund House is a home care agency based in Cambridge, in the Cambridgeshire 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 Cambridge office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by The Edmund Trust. The agency has been registered since June 2016.

At its latest inspection, published April 2020, the CQC rated Edmund House Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

Edmund House has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Cambridgeshire with a rate on record typically charge about £28 an hour and £1,563 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.

There are 134 registered home care agencies in Cambridgeshire. Others working the same area include Fuchsia Homecare Cambridge, Cambridgeshire County Council Reablement Service and Compassionate Heart. 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.
