Invaluable Care Ltd

Invaluable Care Ltd is a home care agency based in Southend-on-Sea, in the Essex 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 Southend-on-Sea 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 sensory impairment. Its website lists hourly visits, live-in care, sleeping nights, hospital discharge and younger adults. It is run by Invaluable Care. The agency has been registered since October 2024.

Invaluable Care Ltd 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.

Invaluable Care Ltd has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Essex with a rate on record typically charge about £27 an hour and £1,675 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.

On how it works, the agency says: 24/7 on-call, free assessment and private clients only. Details like these come from the agency's own website and change, so confirm them when you call.

There are 448 registered home care agencies in Essex. Others working the same area include Trix Medcare Limited Southend Branch, Home Instead Southend-on-Sea and Carlton Court, 3 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.
