Essential Care Support

Essential Care Support is a home care agency based in Bedworth, in the Warwickshire 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 Bedworth 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 part of Dwell Dom Care, which has 2 branches in England. The agency has been registered since November 2024.

Essential Care Support 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.

Essential Care Support has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Warwickshire. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care.
