KM Home Support

KM Home Support is a home care agency based in Washington, in the Sunderland 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 Washington office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people and younger adults. It is run by Mrs Kelly McGillan. The agency has been registered since March 2024.

KM Home Support 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.

KM Home Support has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Sunderland. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care. Ask for a written price list that shows the weekend and bank holiday rates and the shortest visit they will do.
