Falcon Carers

Falcon Carers is a home care agency based in Sale, in the Trafford council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 9 miles of its Sale 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, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Miss Sikholisile Moyo. The agency has been registered since December 2014.

At its latest inspection, published October 2022, the CQC rated Falcon Carers Requires improvement, which means the CQC found the service was not performing as well as it should and told it how to improve. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
