N-Able Care

N-Able Care is a home care agency based in Axminster, in the Devon 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 Axminster office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a learning disability or autism. It is run by Mr Phillip John Lawlor. The agency has been registered since May 2022.

At its latest inspection, published July 2023, the CQC rated N-Able Care Requires improvement, which means the CQC found the service was not performing as well as it should and told it how to improve. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

N-Able Care has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Devon. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care. Ask for a written price list that shows the weekend and bank holiday rates and the shortest visit they will do.
