Joycecare

Joycecare is a home care agency based in Bexleyheath, in the Bexley 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 Bexleyheath 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 and younger adults. It is run by RJM Care Services. The agency has been registered since February 2019.

Joycecare 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.
