Merseycare Julie Ann Limited

Merseycare Julie Ann Limited is a home care agency based in Liverpool, 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 Liverpool 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, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is part of Clece Care Services, which has 50 branches in England. The agency has been registered since December 2010.

Merseycare Julie Ann Limited 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.
