Marbleside Care is a home care agency based in Margate, in the Kent 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 Margate office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by Mr & Mrs D B Mirsky. The agency has been registered since November 2010.

At its latest inspection, published November 2020, the CQC rated Marbleside Care 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.
