Extended Caring Limited

Extended Caring Limited is a home care agency based in Sittingbourne, 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 Sittingbourne office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with mental health needs. It is run by Extended Caring. The agency has been registered since April 2023.

Extended Caring 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.
