Medukcare

Medukcare is a home care agency based in Leatherhead, in the Surrey 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 Leatherhead 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 learning disability or autism and people with mental health needs. It is run by Medukcare Recruitment. The agency has been registered since October 2017.

At its latest inspection, published December 2021, the CQC rated Medukcare 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.
