GMT Healthcare

GMT Healthcare is a home care agency based in Stoke-on-Trent, 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 Stoke-on-Trent 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 and people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by GMT Health Care Services. The agency has been registered since August 2017.

At its latest inspection, published June 2019, the CQC rated GMT Healthcare 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.
