Maritime House

Maritime House is a home care agency based in Portsmouth, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 16 miles of its Portsmouth office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for people living with dementia, people with a physical disability, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of Chosen Care Group, which has 6 branches in England. The agency has been registered since January 2026.

At its latest inspection, published February 2024, the CQC rated Maritime House Inadequate, which means the CQC found the service performing badly and has taken enforcement action. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
