Extra Care Service

Extra Care Service is a home care agency based in Leeds, 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 Leeds 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 part of Leeds City Council, which has 5 branches in England. The agency has been registered since September 2011.

At its latest inspection, published November 2018, the CQC rated Extra Care Service 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.

Extra Care Service has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Leeds with a rate on record typically charge about £25.50 an hour and £1,439 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 228 registered home care agencies in Leeds. Others working the same area include Healing Hands Care, Southlands Retirement Apartments with Care and Support and Hales Group Ltd Leeds, 4 of which have a rate on record. 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.
