Manchester Primecare

Manchester Primecare is a home care agency based in Manchester, 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 Manchester 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, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. Its website lists hourly visits, live-in care and end of life care. It is run by Manchester Prime Care. The agency has been registered since July 2020.

At its latest inspection, published February 2023, the CQC rated Manchester Primecare Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

Manchester Primecare has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Manchester with a rate on record typically charge about £25.50 an hour and £1,025 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: free assessment. Details like these come from the agency's own website and change, so confirm them when you call.

There are 114 registered home care agencies in Manchester. Others working the same area include Home Instead South Manchester, Holistic Social Care and L'Arche Manchester - St Paul's Office, 6 of which have a rate on record.
